In a method of controlling reclaim of a nonvolatile memory device including a plurality of memory blocks, wherein each of the memory blocks includes a plurality of pages, a recovery read operation is performed on first data using an optimal read voltage determined based on the first data, when the first data includes errors which are not correctable, wherein the first data is read from a first page of a first memory block of the memory blocks, and, when the errors of the first data are corrected after the recovery read operation is performed, whether to perform a reclaim of the first page is determined based on threshold voltage distributions of memory cells of the first page, wherein the memory cells are disposed in a region of interest adjacent to the optimal read voltage.
