Paragraph Number

200

For example, as described below with regard to FIG. 6C, a multi-level storage cell stores at least a most significant bit (“MSB”) and a least significant bit (“LSB”). In certain embodiments, the MSB and the LSB, though part of the same physical multi-level storage cell, may be assigned to different pages of the solid-state storage media 110. In certain embodiments, a plurality of the multi-level storage cells are organized on the solid-state storage media 110 (such as NAND flash for example) as a physical page. In certain solid-state storage media 110, a physical page is the smallest unit that can be written to the solid-state storage media 110. In such embodiments, a multi-level storage cell may be associated with a page pair. A page pair is a pair of pages (upper and lower) that are associated with a single set of physical multi-level storage cells. For example, a multi-level storage cell may be associated with a page pair that includes an upper page and a lower page. An upper page may be associated with the MSBs, and the lower page may be associated with the LSBs, or vice versa.
