1. An apparatus comprising:
- a media characteristic module configured to determine that a set of storage cells of a non-volatile memory device has an increased raw bit error rate (RBER);
a configuration parameter module configured to determine a read voltage threshold for the set of storage cells, the read voltage threshold defined to decrease the RBER for the set of storage cells; and
a cell configuration module configured to cause the non-volatile memory device to use the determined read voltage threshold with the set of storage cells.

12. An apparatus comprising:
a non-volatile storage element comprising, one or more NAND flash storage cells; a direction module configured to determine a direction of deviation for a read voltage threshold of the one or more NAND flash storage cells; and an adjustment module configured to iteratively adjust the read voltage threshold based on the direction of deviation and on a closed feedback loop from the one or more NAND flash storage cells until one or more data errors are correctable. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
