RETARGETING OF A WRITE OPERATION RETRY IN THE EVENT OF A WRITE OPERATION FAILURE
First Claim
1. A memory system for providing non-volatile write operation retry, comprising:
- a first non-volatile memory device including a buffer that retains data associated with a failed write operation; and
a volatile memory in communication with the first non-volatile memory device and including write operation retry logic operable to receive notice of the write operation failure from the first non-volatile memory device and attempt a first write operation retry using data retained in the buffer.

Abstract
Methods and systems are herein disclosed for write operation retry using the data stored and retained in an internal buffer within the non-volatile memory device. By using the data stored in the internal buffer, the systems and method of the present invention eliminate the need to include a dedicated retry buffer at the system level. Thereby, reducing the system cost, minimizing space consumption on a board within the system and, in some instance, limiting the latency attributed to a retry that relies on retrying the write based on re-transferring of the data contents to the internal non-volatile memory buffer.
