摘要： A data management for a flash memory device is disclosed. The device includes a screen virtual sector table and a virtual unit versus physical unit table (V2P table) for each block. With the auxiliary of the screen virtual sector table and v2p table, the data programming into the target block of the flash memory is in accordance with the data receiving order, which is from lower page number to higher page number in case the target block is free. The data can be written into the target block contains data already through one or two temporal block(s). The conventional LBA data transfer protocol can still be applied to the flash memory device of this invention.

摘要： A flash storage device for transferring data to and from a host. The flash storage uses a controller to data transfer in the flash storage device, a buffer to temporarily store data for transfer between the host and the flash storage device, a first table for maintaining storage information relating to the flash storage; and a second table for maintaining information relating to the association of virtual sectors to the logical sectors, wherein the controller transfers data between the host and the flash storage and updates the first table and the second table to reflect the transfer of the data. The first table and the second table contain include addressing and status information for a more efficient and improved data transfer.
