Abstract: An operating method of a storage device includes reading a wear-out pattern of a memory block when a controller determines the memory block is a re-use memory block of a non-volatile memory device; selecting an operation mode corresponding to the read wear-out pattern using the controller; and transmitting the selected operation mode to the non-volatile memory device using the controller.

Abstract: A method of operating a memory controller, the memory controller configured to control a nonvolatile memory device, the nonvolatile memory device including a plurality of memory blocks. The method including detecting an invalid block among the plurality of memory blocks; determining an invalid pattern based on a state of the invalid block; and performing an operation on the invalid block such that the invalid block has the invalid pattern.

Abstract: A program method of a nonvolatile memory device is provided which includes programming memory cells to a target state using a verification voltage and an incremental step pulse, selecting memory cells, each having a threshold voltage lower than a supplementary verification voltage, from among the memory cells programmed to the target state, and applying a supplementary program voltage to the selected memory cells. The supplementary verification voltage is equal to or higher than the verification voltage, and the supplementary program voltage is equal to or lower than a program voltage provided in a program loop where a programming of the memory cells to the target state is completed.
