FIG. 5B depicts one embodiment of an access data chunk 504. The access data chunk 504, in certain embodiments, may be substantially similar to the access data chunk 504 described above with regard to FIG. 5A. In the depicted embodiment, the access data chunk 504 includes access data 522 encoded with the secondary/inner error correcting code and a repetition error correcting code, as described above. Thus, in the depicted embodiment, the access data chunk 504 includes repeated messages 520 for the repetition error correcting code, so that each message 520 comprises a code word of the secondary/inner error correcting code of the secondary ECC module 304, both of which are also encoded by the primary/outer error correcting code described above with regard to FIG. 5A. In the depicted embodiment, the secondary/inner error correcting code is a systematic error correcting code, so each repeated message 520 includes the unencoded access data 522, plus check bits 524 for the secondary/inner error correcting code.
