Abstract: A storage device includes a NAND flash memory device, an auxiliary memory device and a storage controller to control the NAND flash memory device and the auxiliary memory device. The storage controller includes a processor, an error correction code (ECC) engine and a memory interface. The processor executes a flash translation layer (FTL) loaded onto an on-chip memory. The ECC engine generates first parity bits for user data to be stored in a target page of the NAND flash memory device based on error attribute of a target memory region associated with the target page, and selectively generates additional parity bits for the user data under control of the processor. The memory interface transmits the user data and the first parity bits to the NAND flash memory device, and selectively transmits the additional parity bits to the auxiliary memory device.

Abstract: In a method of operating one or more nonvolatile memory devices including one or more memory blocks, each memory block includes a plurality of memory cells and a plurality of pages arranged in a vertical direction. Pages arranged in a first direction of a channel hole are set as first to N-th pages. A size of the channel hole increases in the first direction and decreases in the second direction. Pages arranged in a second direction of the channel hole are set as (N+1)-th to 2N-th pages. First to N-th page pairs are set such that a K-th page among the first to the N-th pages and an (N+K)-th page among the (N+1)-th to 2N-th pages form one page pair. Parity regions of two pages included in at least one page pair are shared by the two pages included in the at least one page pair.
