Techniques for memory device writes based on mapping are provided. In one aspect, a block of data to be written to a line in a rank of memory may be received. The rank of memory may comprise multiple memory devices. The block of data may be written to a number of memory devices determined by the size of the block of data. A memory device mapping for the line may be retrieved. The mapping may determine the order in which the block of data is written to the memory devices within the rank. The block of data may be written to the memory devices based on the mapping.
