Original Abstract Submitted
A method includes determining a health characteristic value of a block of memory cells, determining a difference between the health characteristic value and a health threshold, determining, based on the difference, a weight to associate with a block of memory cells, selecting, based on the weight, a block of memory cells for a media management operation; and performing a media management operation on the selected block of memory cells.
