Media management operations based on health characteristics of memory cells

A method includes determining that a ratio of valid data portions to a total quantity of data portions of a block of memory cells is greater than or less than a valid data portion threshold and determining that health characteristics for the valid data portions of the block of memory cells are great...

Zusammenfassung:A method includes determining that a ratio of valid data portions to a total quantity of data portions of a block of memory cells is greater than or less than a valid data portion threshold and determining that health characteristics for the valid data portions of the block of memory cells are greater than or less than a valid data health characteristic threshold. The method further includes performing a first media management operation on the block of memory cells in response to determining that the ratio of valid data portions to the total quantity of data portions is greater than the valid data portion threshold and performing a second media management operation on at least a portion of the block of memory cells in response to determining that the ratio of valid data portions to the total quantity of data portions is less than the valid data portion threshold and the health characteristics for the valid data portions are greater than the valid data health characteristic threshold.
