Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a nonvolatile memory including a plurality of blocks and a controller. The controller manages a garbage collection count for each of blocks containing data written by a host, the garbage collection count indicating the number of times the data in said each of the blocks has been copied by a garbage collection operation of the nonvolatile memory. The controller selects, as garbage collection target blocks, first blocks associated with a same garbage collection count. The controller copies valid data in the first blocks to a copy destination free block. The controller sets, as a garbage collection count of the copy destination free block, a value obtained by adding one to a garbage collection count of the first blocks.

Claim (Index 3):
The memory system of  claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to set, as a garbage collection count of the copy destination free block, a value obtained by adding one to the first garbage collection count when the garbage collection target blocks are selected from the group of the first blocks, and set, as the garbage collection count of the copy destination free block, a value obtained by adding one to the second garbage collection count when the garbage collection target blocks are selected from the group of the second blocks.
