Abstract
A method for storing data in a storage system having solid-state memory is provided. The method includes determining portions of the solid-state memory that have a faster access rate and portions of the solid-state memory that have a slower access rate, relative to each other or to a threshold. The method includes writing data bits of erasure coded data to the portions of the solid-state memory having the faster access rate, and writing one or more parity bits of the erasure coded data to the portions of the solid-state memory having the slower access rate. A storage system is also provided.
