Abstract
A data storage system can receive a data write request to write data to a physical address of a non-volatile semiconductor memory prior to detecting an error while storing the write data to the physical address. The detected error is corrected with a monitor module connected to the non-volatile semiconductor memory and a counter associated with the physical address is incremented with the monitor module in response to the corrected error. The write data can be subsequently read to a host in response to a data read request.
