Content
Upon writing data to the non-volatile memory media, the non-volatile memory media controller 126 may be configured to update metadata 135 (e.g., a forward index) to associate the logical address(es) of the data with the media address(es) of the data on the non-volatile memory media 122. In some embodiments, the metadata 135 may be maintained on the non-volatile memory media controller 126; for example, the metadata 135 may be stored on the non-volatile memory media 122, on a volatile memory (not shown), or the like. Alternatively, or in addition, the metadata 135 may be maintained within the SML 130 (e.g., on a volatile memory 112 of the computing device 110 of FIGS. 1A and 1B). In some embodiments, the metadata 135 may be maintained in a volatile memory by the SML 130, and may be periodically stored on the non-volatile memory media 122.
