Abstract
The present general inventive concept relates to a solid state drive and a method of controlling an error thereof. A flash translation layer includes a parity managing module to correct errors. A block address of a storage medium including error data that can be recovered is managed through the parity managing module. Parity data of a block including error data is generated through the parity managing module. The generated parity data is managed through the parity managing module. The generated parity data can be stored in an assigned area of the storage medium. When data of a block managed by the parity managing module is not recovered by an error correction code unit, error data is recovered with reference to the generated parity data.
