Systems and methods of storing data

A method of writing data, the method comprising:

• in a data storage device with multiple physical pages including a first physical page and a second physical page, performing:
• receiving a data page to be stored in the data storage device, wherein the data page is received from a host device;
• initiating a first encode operation to encode the data page, wherein the first encode operation generates first encoded data;
• storing at least a portion of the first encoded data to the first physical page;
• decoding a representation of the portion of the first encoded data read from the first physical page to recover the data page;
• initiating a second encode operation to encode the data page, wherein the second encode operation generates second encoded data;
• and
• storing the second encoded data to the second physical page, wherein the second encoded data spans over more pages than the portion of the first encoded data.

A data storage device comprising:

• a controller that includes an error correction coding (ECC) engine;
• and
• a memory die that includes a first physical page and a second physical page,
• wherein the controller is configured to initiate an encode operation at the ECC engine to encode a data page that is received from a host device, wherein the encode operation generates first encoded data, and wherein the controller is configured to store at least a portion of the first encoded data to the first physical page, and
• wherein the memory die includes a redundant data generator circuit that is operative to generate second encoded data to be stored to the second physical page, wherein the redundant data generator circuit is configured to receive a representation of the portion of the first encoded data read from the first physical page and to generate redundant data based on the representation of the portion of the first encoded data to generate the second encoded data.

A data storage device comprising:

• a controller;
• and
• a memory including a first physical page and a second physical page, wherein the controller is configured to initiate a first encode operation to encode a received data page and to store at least a portion of first encoded data generated by the encode operation to the first physical page, wherein the data page is received from a host device,
• wherein the controller is further configured to read and decode a representation of the portion of the first encoded data from the first physical page to recover the data page, and wherein the controller is configured to initiate a second encode operation to encode the data page, wherein the second encode operation generates second encoded data, and to store the second encoded data to the second physical page, wherein the second encoded data spans over more pages than the portion of the first encoded data.
