Abstract

A method includes, in a memory controller that controls a memory, evaluating an available memory space remaining in the memory to write data. A redundant storage configuration is selected in the memory controller depending on the available memory space. Redundancy information is calculated over the data using the selected redundant storage configuration. The data and the redundancy information are written to the available memory space in the memory.
