A NAND flash memory device performing an error detecting and data reloading operation during a copy back program operation is provided. The device includes a cell array having a plurality of planes and a parity cell array having a plurality of parity planes. Each of the parity planes stores a parity of each of the planes. Additionally, the device includes a parity generating and parity column selecting circuit generating a new parity about reloaded data from an outside during a copy back program operation, and storing the new parity on a parity plane corresponding to a plane on which the reloaded data is stored.
