Content
In another embodiment, the storage division selection module 804 selects a storage division for recovery by identifying a storage division or erase block with a high amount of wear. For example, identifying a storage division or erase block with a high amount of wear may include identifying a storage division with a high number of erase cycles, high bit error rate, a storage division with a non-recoverable ECC block, or high program count. The storage division selection module 804 may also use any combination of the above or other parameters to determine a storage division with a high amount of wear. Selecting a storage division for recovery by determining a storage division with a high amount of wear may be desirable to find storage divisions that are over used, may be recovered by refreshing the storage division using an erase cycle, etc. or to retire the storage division from service as being unusable.
