Abstract

Technology disclosed herein efficiently uses memory available in non-volatile storage devices in a non-volatile memory system. In one aspect, a manager collects enough data to fill an entire chunk of a redundancy coding stripe, and requests that the entire chunk be written together in a selected non-volatile storage device. The selected non-volatile storage device may return an internal address at which the entire chunk was written. The manager may store a stripe map that identifies the internal addresses at which each chunk was stored.
