Paragraph Number

47

The non-volatile memory controller may be further configured to store data in a log format. As described above, a log format refers to a data format that defines an ordered sequence of storage operations performed on a non-volatile memory media. In some embodiments, the log format comprises storing data in a pre-determined sequence of media addresses of the non-volatile memory media (e.g., within sequential pages and/or erase blocks of the media). The log format may further comprise associating data (e.g., each packet or data segment) with respective sequence indicators. The sequence indicators may be applied to data individually (e.g., applied to each data packet) and/or to data groupings (e.g., packets stored sequentially on a memory division, such as an erase block). In some embodiments, sequence indicators may be applied to memory divisions when the memory divisions are reclaimed (e.g., erased), as described above, and/or when the memory divisions are first used to store data.
