A distributed storage unit determines how to handle a read or write request for a data slice based on a state of the memory the data slice is to be read from or written to. When receiving a request to retrieve a data slice, the distributed storage unit, determines a state of the memory in which the data slice is stored. Based on the memory state, one of multiple different methods for obtaining the data slice is selected. The methods include, among others, a direct read from the memory, and reconstructing the data slice using other memories and parity values. In response to a write request, the distributed storage unit can determine whether to use the currently selected memory for writing, or rotate the memory used for writing, based on a state of the memory.
