US Patent 9047211 Managing data reliability

An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for managing data reliability. A priority module is configured to receive a storage request for a non-volatile memory device. The storage request may include data associated with a priority. The non-volatile memory device includes a plurality of cells, and each cell encodes a plurality of bits. The bits for a cell provide distinct levels of quality of service. A select module is configured to select a bit for storing the data based on the priority of the data and the level of quality of service of the selected bit. A data management module is configured to manage the data to satisfy a write order for the plurality of bits.
