Zusammenfassung:Apparatuses and methods for commands to perform wear leveling operations are described herein. An example apparatus may include a memory configured to receive a wear leveling command and to perform a wear leveling operation responsive to the wear leveling command. The memory may further be configured to recommend a wear leveling command be provided to the memory responsive to a global write count exceeding a threshold. The global write count may be indicative of a number of write operations performed by the memory since the memory performed a wear leveling operation.
