Abstract
According to one general aspect, an apparatus may include a regeneration-code-aware (RCA) storage device configured to calculate at least one type of data regeneration code for data error correction. The RCA storage device may include a memory configured to store data in chunks which, in turn, comprise data blocks. The RCA storage device may include a processor configured to compute, when requested by an external host device, a data regeneration code based upon a selected number of data blocks. The RCA storage device may include an external interface configured to transmit the data regeneration code to the external host device.
