Methods, systems, and devices for bad block replacement by a memory system are described. For example, a memory system may replace bad blocks with available user blocks if a quantity of replacement blocks satisfies a threshold value. In some examples, a memory system that includes the memory device may notify an end-user that the quantity of replacement blocks satisfies the threshold value. In response, the memory system may receive an indication from the end-user to use the available user blocks (e.g., blocks designated for storing user data) to replace the bad blocks.
