Abstract
The present invention is directed to a simple and scalable RAID XOR assist logic with overlapped operations. An apparatus suitable for performing overlapped operations may include an exclusive OR (XOR) unit suitable for performing an exclusive OR (XOR) operation. A memory communicatively coupled to the XOR unit, wherein the memory is suitable for storing a first item of data and a second item of data thereby enabling overlapped operations of the exclusive OR (XOR) unit.
