Abstract

A data writing method for a rewritable non-volatile memory module is provided. The method includes receiving a write command and data corresponding to the write command from a host system and temporarily storing the data into a buffer memory, and the data includes a plurality of sub-data streams. The method still includes transmitting the sub-data streams into the rewritable non-volatile memory module, thereby writing the sub-data streams into at least one physical erasing unit of the rewritable non-volatile memory module. The method further includes generating parity information based on at least portion of the sub-data streams; storing the parity information into the buffer memory and deleting the data from the buffer memory. Accordingly, the method can effectively utilize the storage space of the buffer memory.
