Abstract
Methods for remapping and/or compacting data in memory devices, memory devices, and systems are disclosed. One such method of remapping and/or compacting data includes reducing a first quantity of write operations that are received from a host to a second quantity of write operations for programming to a page of a memory device that are within the specifications of partial page write operations for the memory device. The second quantity of write operations can also remap data that were originally intended to be programmed to memory address ranges that conflict with a memory map of the memory device.
