In one embodiment, there is a method for managing data in a storage device comprising a non-volatile memory having a plurality of jumbo blocks, each jumbo block having a separate and distinct physical block address. The method comprises performing a folding operation data associated with a first virtual address from a plurality of Single Level Cell (SLC) jumbo blocks of the non-volatile memory to one Multilevel Cell (MLC) jumbo block of the non-volatile memory, receiving a read request to read data associated with a first logical block address, identifying that the first virtual address is associated with the first logical block address, determining whether a jumbo block associated with the first logical block address meets pre-SLC-overwrite criteria. In response to a determination that the jumbo block associated with the first logical block address meets pre-SLC-overwrite criteria, reading data from the SLC jumbo block associated with the first virtual address. In response to a determination that the jumbo block associated with the first logical block address does not meet pre-SLC-overwrite criteria, reading data from the MLC jumbo block associated with the first virtual address.
