Abstract
Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems include a memory controller receiving a user payload to be written to a memory. The memory controller determines a plurality of locations within the memory within which the user payload will be written. After detecting the destination of the user payload, the memory controller detects, within a data structure, the presence of an identifier of a first location within a user data portion of the plurality of locations. The memory controller writes the user payload to the user data portion of the plurality of locations and, in response to detecting the presence of the identifier in the data structure, writes a copy of one or more bits in the user payload written to the first location to a spare data portion of the plurality of locations.
