MEMORY SYSTEM AND RELATED BLOCK MANAGEMENT METHOD

摘要

A memory system manages memory blocks of a nonvolatile memory device by determining at least one memory block property of a selected memory block among the multiple memory blocks in the nonvolatile memory device, storing memory block property information indicating the at least one memory block property, arranging a free memory block list based on the stored memory block property information, and designating a free memory block from the arranged free memory block list as an active memory block, wherein the designation of the free memory block as an active memory block is based on an ordering of the free memory block list.

1. A method of managing memory blocks in a memory system comprising a nonvolatile memory device, comprising:
determining at least one memory block property of a selected memory block among the multiple memory blocks in the nonvolatile memory device; storing memory block property information indicating the at least one memory block property; arranging a free memory block list based on the stored memory block property information; and designating a free memory block from the arranged free memory block list as an active memory block, wherein the designation of the free memory block as an active memory block is based on an ordering of the free memory block list.
