Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, methods, and computer program products are disclosed for using a combined parity buffer memory for multiple open blocks of non-volatile memory. A controller is configured to accumulate, to a memory buffer, combined parity data for multiple open blocks of non-volatile memory in response to write operations to the multiple open blocks of non-volatile memory. A controller is configured to determine to close one block of multiple open blocks of non-volatile memory. A controller is configured to generate non-combined parity data for a block of non-volatile memory based on write operations to multiple open blocks of non-volatile memory.
