Abstract

A method and system for syndrome generation and data recovery is described. The system includes a parity generator coupled to one or more storage devices to generate parity for data recovery. The parity generator includes a first comparator to generate a first parity factor based on data in one or more of the storage devices, a multiplier to multiply data from one or more of the storage devices with a multiplication factor to generate a product, a second comparator coupled to the multiplier to generate a second parity factor based at least in part on the product, and a selector to choose between the first parity factor and the second parity factor.
