Abstract
Provided is a memory system including a plurality of memory submodules and a controller. Each submodule comprises a plurality of memory channels, each channel having a parity bit and a redundant array of independent devices (RAID) parity channel. The controller is configured to receive a block of data for storage in the plurality of memory submodules and determine whether a level of data traffic demand for a first of the plurality of submodules is high or low. When the data traffic demand is low, (i) writing a portion of the block of data in the first of the plurality of submodules and (ii) concurrently updating the parity bit and the RAID parity channel associated with the block of data. When the data traffic demand is high, (i) only writing the portion of the block of data in the first of the plurality of submodules and (ii) deferring updating of the parity bits and the RAID parity channel associated with the block of data.
