Storage device

A nonvolatile storage device, comprising:

• a first storage element;
• a second storage element;
• and
• a processing circuit, configured to perform a method, the method comprising:
• determining that a first bit of a storage element availability bit map is set, the first bit corresponding to the first storage element, the first bit of the storage element availability bit map indicating that the first storage element is available to perform a write operation;
• determining that a first bit of a first super select line bit map is set, the first bit of the first super select line bit map corresponding to a first select line and to the first storage element;
• determining that a first bit of a first masking bit map is set, the first bit of the first masking bit map corresponding to the first storage element;
• and
• in response to determining that the first bit of the storage element availability bit map is set, and that the first bit of the first super select line bit map is set, and that the first bit of the first masking bit map is set, performing a first write operation in the first storage element.
