Dual compression in memory devices

A method of directing data within a memory device, the method comprising:

• receiving data at the memory device from a host device;
• directing a first portion of the data to a first subregion of a compressible-designated region of a memory subsystem of the memory device as non-compressed data, based on a first compression ratio being less than a threshold compression ratio, the compressible-designated region being defined to store user data that is compressible data;
• and
• directing a second portion of the data to a second subregion of the compressible-designated region as compressed data, based on a second compression ratio being greater than the threshold compression ratio, after compressing the second portion of the data.

A method of operating a memory device, the method comprising:

• arranging a memory subsystem to have an uncompressed region and a compressed region, the uncompressed region to store non-compressible data and the compressed region to store compressible data;
• arranging the compressed region to include a first subregion and a second subregion, the first subregion to accept non-compressed data corresponding to a first compression ratio being less than a threshold compression ratio and the second subregion to accept compressed data corresponding to a second compression ratio being greater than the threshold compression ratio;
• and
• directing data received from a host device to one of the uncompressed region, the first subregion, or the second subregion.
