Abstract
The technology disclosed herein provides a method of verifying data read from a data block when the cell number of the data block does not match an ECC value stored in the data block. In particular, the method includes accessing a data block in an indexed sequence of data blocks based on a cell number, wherein each data block in the indexed sequence includes a stored ECC value; retrieving an offset associated with the cell number of the data block; generating an ECC value based on the cell number and the offset; and determining whether the generated ECC value and the stored ECC value satisfy an integrity condition.
