Abstract
A first set representing a first plurality of physical block addresses of a non-volatile memory and a second set representing a second plurality of physical block addresses of the non-volatile memory may be identified. In response to a request to perform a wear leveling operation, first data from a first physical block address of the first set may be swapped with second data from a first physical block address of the second set. A second physical block address of the first set that is adjacent to the first physical block address of the first set may be identified. Third data from the second physical block address of the first set may be swapped with fourth data from a second physical block address of the second set that is adjacent to the first physical block of the second set.
