More Information
Summary:A data storage device includes a memory device and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller is configured to receive a read command form a host device, collect environment data of the memory device, decode data associated with the read command, determine a bit error rate (BER) of the decoded data, compare the BER to a threshold, and determine whether the data associated with the read command is to be relocated. The environment data includes temperature, number of program/erase cycles, amount of grown defects, number of past relocations and time since last data relocation. The controller is further configured to dynamically adjust the threshold based on the collected environment data and an amount of time that has passed since a last relocation of the read command data.
