Abstract
Implementations disclosed herein provide for dynamically mapping logical block addresses (LBA) of unfinished data blocks to unused data blocks during an in-the-field finishing process of a storage medium. Such dynamic mapping creates an impression that the storage medium operates at an advertised capacity before the effective capacity is equal to the advertised capacity.
