Abstract
Embodiments include apparatuses, method, and systems for organizing individual memory dice of a memory device into a plurality of virtual dice and designating one of the virtual dice of the memory device for storage of redundancy information. In one embodiment, a memory controller includes memory allocation logic to organize memory resources of individual memory dice of a memory device into a plurality of virtual dice, including a redundancy virtual die for storing redundancy information and a plurality of data virtual dice for storing data. The memory controller may further include input/output logic to write data to the data virtual dice of the non-volatile memory device, and redundancy information logic to generate redundancy information based on the data and to write the redundancy information to the redundancy virtual die of the non-volatile memory device.
