Abstract
A data processing method for a solid state drive includes the following steps. When a write command is received, the write command is executed to store a write data into a first number of blocks of the plural blocks, a block-closing action is performed to generate a first number of used blocks, and the logical-to-physical table is updated. When a trim command is received, the trim command is executed to change a second number of used blocks to a second number of unused blocks, a physical-to-logical data corresponding to the second number of used blocks is stored into a trim block of the non-volatile memory, and the logical-to-physical table is updated. A backup action is performed at plural time points to generate plural backup contents corresponding to the plural time points, respectively. The plural backup contents are stored into the non-volatile memory.
