A redundant array of independent disks (RAID) protection can be provided along with other types of error correction code (ECC) schemes that correct either errors in data prior to the data being input to the RAID process or residual errors from the RAID process. The ECC schemes can utilize parity bits generated using a parity matrix whose bit patterns have an amount of bits that can be used to identify a location of the memory system from which data corresponding to the respective bit pattern is read.
