Abstract
Methods, systems and apparatus for storing data by an ECC memory are provided. In one aspect, when an ECC memory configured to be used for data blocks with a first data length is used for data blocks with a reduced second data length, a method includes storing at least one data block with the second data length in a data bit storage part of a storage array and storing parity bits generated for only one data block of the at least one data block according to a relevant encoding rule in a parity bit storage part of the storage array. When the at least one data block is two or more data blocks, one or more judgment bits, which indicate that the stored parity bits correspond to the only one data block, are stored in one or more storage bits of the parity bit storage part that are not occupied.
