Abstract
A non-volatile semiconductor memory is disclosed comprising a memory device having a memory array including a plurality of memory segments. A plurality of sequential access write commands and random access write commands are received from a host, wherein each write command identifies at least one logical block address (LBA). The LBAs for the sequential access write commands are mapped to a plurality of the memory segments to generate sequential mapping data, and the sequential mapping data is mapped to a first one of the zones. The LBAs for the random access write commands are mapped to a plurality of the memory segments to generate random mapping data, and the random mapping data is mapped to a second one of the zones.
