Abstract
A data storage system including an array of storage devices and a storage controller is provided. The array of storage devices is configured to store information in the form of a plurality of stripes. The storage controller is configured to write a plurality of code words forming each stripe to the array of storage devices. Each code word comprises a plurality of data blocks and at least one redundancy block. A redundancy check matrix is previously provided and one subset including any k columns of elements in the redundancy check matrix is invertible. The storage controller generates the redundancy block according to the plurality of data blocks and the redundancy check matrix. Once up to k storage devices among the array of storage devices are failed, the other un-failed storage devices and the redundancy check matrix are utilized to recover the failed storage devices.
