The remapping table would be just one number per sector, but one full rewrite of the table each time a sector in the disk changes (or maybe not, it is several sectors in size). I thought that would be too much wear. And the table itself would be subject to remapping? Then how can the firmware find it?
It could use self-identifying flash format and scan it on power-on to build the translation table. Translation table itself would be kept in RAM to speed up access. This would mean overhead of one block per erase page but no extra writes.
