Abstract: A memory polling method, a memory storage device and a memory control circuit unit are provided. The memory polling method includes: detecting a plurality of busy times corresponding to a plurality of physical units when executing a plurality of first commands; counting the busy times corresponding to the physical units to generate a count statistic value, and determine a delay time based on the count statistic value; and transmitting a plurality of status requests to a rewritable non-volatile memory module after the delay time.

Abstract: A memory operation control method, a memory storage device, and a memory control circuit unit are disclosed. The method includes the following. Management data is established, which includes status recording data. First status information corresponding to a first physical unit is stored in the status recording data. An operation command is received from a host system. The management data is queried according to the operation command. Whether to allow an execution of the operation command on the first physical unit is determined according to a query result.

Abstract: A memory management method for a memory storage device is provided. The memory management method includes: detecting effective information of at least one operation event performed by the memory storage device in a first mode; and adjusting a threshold value according to the effective information. The threshold value is configured to determine whether to instruct the memory storage device to enter the first mode.

Abstract: A memory management method, a memory storage device and a memory control circuit unit are disclosed. The method includes: performing a first write operation to store first data to a first physical unit; recording first unit management information corresponding to the first write operation, wherein the first unit management information reflects a usage order of first used physical units, and the first used physical units include the first physical unit; performing data merge operation to copy at least a part of data stored in the first physical unit to a second physical unit; and after the data merge operation is performed, recording second unit management information according to the first unit management information, wherein the second unit management information reflects a usage order of second used physical units. The second used physical units include the second physical unit but do not include the first physical unit.

Abstract: A multi-channel memory storage device, a memory control circuit unit, and a data reading method are provided. The method includes: determining whether a storage space of a buffer memory is insufficient when a multi-channel access is performed; issuing a data read command corresponding to each of a plurality of multi-channels to a rewritable non-volatile memory module according to a logical address in a host read command in response to insufficient storage space of the buffer memory to read data corresponding to each of the plurality of multi-channels from a data storage area to a data cache area via the plurality of multi-channels; and allocating the storage space of the buffer memory to the rewritable non-volatile memory module after the storage space of the buffer memory is released and issuing a cache read command to move first data in data temporarily stored in the data cache area to the buffer memory.
