Abstract

See full text

A memory management method, a memory storage device and a memory controlling circuit unit are provided. The method includes: programming data into a plurality of memory cells of a rewritable non-volatile memory module; determining whether a storage state of the data conforms with a first condition or a second condition based on a default bias range and a threshold voltage distribution of the memory cells storing the data; performing a first operation if the storage state of the data conforms with the first condition; and performing a second operation if the storage state of the data conforms with the second condition. Accordingly, the probability of misidentifying the valid data as the invalid data may be reduced.
