Motivated by the needs to enhance the performance of garbage collection in low-cost flash storage devices, we propose a victim block selection design to efficiently identify the blocks for erases and reclaim the space of invalid data without extensively scanning flash memory for the data status stored in the storage, so as to improve the garbage collection performance on reclaiming the space of invalid data. Moreover, this design could easily identify and reclaim the space released by file systems. Experiments based on benchmark traces show significant performance improvement of garbage collection with limited system overheads.
