NON-VOLATILE MEMORY SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A memory system, comprising:
- a memory device including a first memory and a second memory; and
a controller configured to control storing of data in the memory device such that the controller controls an (N−
1)th piece of meta data to be stored in the second memory when an Nth piece of user data is stored in the first memory or controls the Nth piece of the user data to be stored in the second memory when the (N−
1)th piece of the meta data is stored in the first memory, where N denotes a natural number equal to or greater than ‘
1’
, and a time period of storing the Nth piece of the user data partially or entirely overlaps with a time period of storing the (N−
1)th piece of the meta data.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a memory system includes a memory device with a first memory and a second memory, and a controller configured to control storing of data in the memory device. The controller is configured to control an (N−1)th piece of meta data to be stored in the second memory when an Nth piece of user data is stored in the first memory or control the Nth piece of the user data to be stored in the second memory when the (N−1)th piece of the meta data is stored in the first memory, where N denotes a natural number equal to or greater than ‘1’. Also, a time period of storing the Nth piece of the user data is controlled to partially or entirely overlap with a time period of storing the (N−1)th piece of the meta data.

12. A storage device comprising:
-
a non-volatile memory device including at least one non-volatile memory with a first plane and a second plane; and a controller configured to store data in the at least one non-volatile memory, the controller configured to one of (i) store meta data, which contains address information of previous user data stored in the at least one non-volatile memory in the second plane when user data is stored in the first plane and (ii) store the user data in the second plane when the meta data is stored in the first plane, and a time period of storing the user data partially or entirely overlapping with a time period of storing the meta data. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)
