Abstract

A data storage device includes a memory device and a controller coupled to the memory device. The controller is configured to receive a request from a requester for a superblock, determine that one or more blocks of a die of the superblock are expected to fail, and either replace the one or more blocks of the die with another one or more blocks from a different die or add the another one or more blocks from the different die and disable the one or more blocks of the die, and provide the superblock to the requester. The superblock provided to the requester is erased prior to the providing and is the same size as an original superblock.
