Abstract
Systems and methods for partial bad block reuse may be provided. Data may be copied from a block of a first memory to a block of a second memory. A post write read error may be detected in a first portion the data copied to the block of the second memory without detection of a post write read error in a second portion of the data copied to the block of the second memory. The block of the second memory may be determined to be a partial bad block usable for storage in response to detection of the post write read error in the first portion of the data but not in the second portion of the data.
