Content

In one embodiment, the adjustment module 408 stops readjusting a read voltage threshold once a retry threshold is satisfied. For example, if the ECC decoder 322 cannot correct a data error and/or if the read bias for the data set continues to deviate from the known bias when a retry threshold for the data set is satisfied, the adjustment module 408 may cease making adjustments to the read voltage threshold. The retry threshold may be selected based on a set of possible read voltage threshold levels, or the like. In one embodiment, a retry threshold sets a number of times which the adjustment module 408 may adjust a read voltage threshold. In another embodiment, a retry threshold may set an amount of time in which the adjustment module 408 may make read voltage threshold adjustments. The solid-state storage controller 104, in certain embodiments, may take further remedial action in response to the retry threshold being satisfied, such as retiring the storage cells associated with the data set, logically replacing the storage cells associated with the data set, or the like.
