Abstract
Some embodiments involve a method of detecting an error of a memory device. It is determined whether the detected error is a catastrophic error. If it is determined that the error is a catastrophic error, an error recovery process is bypassed. Some aspects involve a method of detecting an error of a memory device. It is determined whether a counter value is above a predetermined value. If it is determined that the counter value is above the predetermined value an error recovery process is bypassed and a redundant parity recovery process is performed.
