Abstract
The subject technology provides for managing a data storage system. A host write command to write host data associated with a logical address to a non-volatile memory is received. A first physical address in the non-volatile memory mapped to the logical address in an address mapping table is determined. An indicator that the first physical address is bad checked. If the first physical address is indicated as bad, a valid count associated with a first set of physical addresses at a current value is maintained. The first set of physical addresses comprises the first physical address. If the first physical address is not indicated as bad, the first physical address is marked as invalid. The valid count associated with the first set of physical addresses is decremented.
