1. An apparatus comprising:

  • a first block configured to encode data to be stored in a non-volatile memory as a codeword, to store respective portions of the codeword in a distributed manner across a plurality of die of the non-volatile memory, and to generate respective error detection codes for the plurality of die; and

    a second block coupled to the first block and configured to identify a first die of the plurality of die for use in remedial action, based on a determination related to the error detection codes that more sub-portions of a first portion of the codeword stored on the first die include an error than sub-portions of a second portion of the codeword stored on a second die of the plurality of die.
