Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and devices for user configurable wear leveling of non-volatile memory devices. Devices include a non-volatile memory including a plurality of physical memory portions, where each of the plurality of physical memory portions is configured to be mapped to a logical memory portion of a plurality of logical memory portions. Devices may also include wear leveling control circuitry configured to receive a plurality of wear leveling parameters, and further configured to determine a plurality of wear leveling characteristics based on the plurality of wear leveling parameters received, where the plurality of wear leveling characteristics identify an amount of wear leveling allowed for each of the plurality of logical memory portions.
