Methods and apparatus for splitting a single logical block into two or more
physical blocks are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention,
a method for associating a plurality of physical blocks of a non-volatile memory
with a logical block that includes of logical block elements involves grouping
the logical block elements into at least a first logical set and a second logical
set. Data associated with the first logical set is provided to a first physical
block, and data associated with the second logical set is provided to a second
