    摘要: The invention provides a data management method for a memory device. In one embodiment, the memory device comprises a plurality of memories for data storage. First, write data and a write logical address is received from a host. The write logical address is then converted to a write physical address. A target memory corresponding to the write physical address is then determined. Whether the target memory is in a busy state is then checked. When the target memory is in the busy state, the write data is written to a buffer area of a substitute memory of the target memory.
