Abstract
An apparatus includes a storage controller, a non-volatile memory die comprising a set of memory elements and a memory die controller associated with the non-volatile memory die. The memory die controller is configured to identify a portion of the non-volatile memory die for mapping logical addresses, read a header of a sub-portion of the identified portion, for a logical address, map a physical address corresponding to the logical address of the sub-portion to a physical-to-logical mapping and transmit the physical-to-logical mapping to the storage controller.
