Free sector manager for data stored in flash memory devices |
September 22, 2009 |
| A flash driver tracks data stored in a flash memory device through the use of logical-to-physical sector mapping. The mapping is stored in a data structure and allows data to be written into the next free physical sector in the flash memory medium. Write operations complete quickly, |
