Abstract
A method of reading data from a memory device is disclosed. The method comprises accessing preexisting data from a location in the memory device in response to a read command and identifying an error in the preexisting data. The identified error is corrected for transmission as corrected data. Error information representing the identified error is stored while the preexisting data is retained in the location of the memory device in uncorrected form.
