1. A memory system comprising:

  • a memory comprising a plurality of blocks; and

    a controller in communication with the memory, wherein the controller is configured to;

    determine that there is a read disturb error in a block;

    identify which data in the block caused the read disturb error to occur in other data in the block; and

    relocate the data that caused the read disturb error to another block with a higher read endurance than the block currently storing the data, wherein the another block with the higher read endurance is less susceptible to read disturb errors than the block currently storing the data.
