APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING DATA INTEGRITY
First Claim
1. An apparatus, comprising a controller configured to be coupled to a number of memory devices, the controller being configured to:
- determine error occurrences associated with a number of memory operations associated with the number of memory devices; and
responsive to an indication of an error occurrence associated with a particular one of the number of memory operations, automatically initiate recovery of data associated with the particular one of the number of memory operations.

Abstract
The present disclosure includes apparatus (e.g., computing systems, memory systems, controllers, etc.) and methods for providing data integrity. One or more methods can include, for example: receiving a number of sectors of data to be written to a number of memory devices; appending first metadata corresponding to the number of sectors and including first integrity data to the number of sectors, the first metadata has a particular format; generating second integrity data to be provided in second metadata, the second integrity data corresponding to at least one of the number of sectors (wherein the second metadata has a second format); and generating third integrity data to be provided in the second metadata, the third integrity data including error data corresponding to the second integrity data and the at least one of the number of sectors.
