    Abstract: A system to monitor the condition of a flash memory device such as flash memory devices that store hardware settings for a BIOS or system logs in a computer system is disclosed. The flash memory device is controlled by a flash memory driver. A controller provides a command via a file system to write data to the flash memory driver. A flash memory module interfaces with the flash memory driver. The flash memory module is configured to determine whether the command to write data requires a block erase of the flash memory device. The flash memory module determines an erase time from when a command to erase a block is sent to when a status of write ready is sent by the flash memory device.
