Abstract
Certain embodiments may relate to providing increased storage capacity. For instance, a memory storage device may include a motherboard with an external communication interface. The memory storage device may also include a multiple solid-state drives coupled to the motherboard in communication with the external communication interface. Each of the plurality of solid-state drives may include a respective storage controller to manage the distribution of data during a write or read operation to a combination of a primary storage allocation and a redundant storage allocation. The redundant storage allocation may be included in the combination in response to detecting an error condition associated with at least a portion of the primary storage allocation.
