ABSTRACT:
A method of storing data in a memory device is disclosed. The method comprises dividing data to be stored in a memory device into one or more data segments; storing the one or more data segments in the memory device; for a particular data segment among the one or more data segments, creating an error detection code; storing the error detection code in the memory device; for the particular data segment, determining an error correction segment that is a logical combination of the particular data segment with a second data segment, wherein the error correction can be used to reconstruct the particular data segment; and storing the error correction segment in the memory device.
