Abstract
A next read threshold is determined by determining a first number of solid state storage cells having a stored voltage which falls into a first voltage range and determining a second number of solid state storage cells having a stored voltage which falls into a second voltage range. A gradient is determine by taking a difference between the first number of solid state storage cells and the second number of solid state storage cells. The next read threshold is determined based at least in part on the gradient.
