US Patent 11914471 Block failure protection for zone memory system

Various embodiments provide block failure protection for a memory sub-system that supports zones, such a memory sub-system that uses a RAIN (redundant array of independent NAND-type flash memory devices) technique for data error-correction. For some embodiments, non-parity zones of a memory sub-system that are filling up at a similar rate are matched together, a parity is generated for stored data from across the matching zones, and the generated parity is stored in a parity zone of the memory device.
