Original Abstract Submitted
Post-write data management operations, such as refresh read, data scrub, and data relocation, are typically performed after a certain period of time has elapsed. However, performing such operations based on probability of access can provide advantages. So, in one example, a post-write data management operation is performed more frequently on relatively-warmer data than on relatively-colder data.
