Methods, systems, and devices for transferring valid data using a system latch are described. The operations described herein may include sensing valid data across a first set of planes associated with a first set of memory blocks of a non-volatile memory system. In response to sensing the valid data, the valid data may be stored to a latch of the non-volatile memory system based on an order of sensing the valid data across the first set of planes. The valid data may be written across a second set of planes associated with a second set of memory blocks of the non-volatile memory system based on the order of sensing the valid data across the first set of planes. In some cases, writing the valid data from the latch may be based on determining that a threshold associated with a duration corresponding to sensing the valid data has been satisfied.
