ABSTRACT:
Sectors of data are stored in a non-volatile memory by writing all the sectors in a first order and subsequently writing all the sectors in a different, second order that is determined prior to the second writing. Sectors are stored in a non-volatile memory by writing the sectors using a first set of write operations and again writing the sectors using a second set of write operations that write one or more of the sectors twice. The first set writes each sector only once and the second set writes the sectors from outside the memory. The first set writes in a mode that couples the cells of the memory less than the second set. The first set writes less reliably than the second set.
