Abstract
Some embodiments include apparatuses and methods having memory cells and a control unit. The control unit can retrieve information from a first portion of the memory cells. The information can include bits organized into a first bit group and second bit group. The information can be associated with management information. The control unit can store the first and second bits in the second group in a second portion of the memory cells. The control unit can update the first and second management information after the second bit group is stored.
