Devices and techniques for disposable parity are described herein. First and second portions of data can be obtained, and respective parity values stored in adjacent memory locations. An entry mapping the respective parity values to the first and second portions of data is updated when the parity values are stored. If an error occurs when writing a portion of data, the mapping entry is used to retrieve the parity data to correct the error. Otherwise, the parity data is discarded.
