Data reliability information in a non-volatile memory device

A data storage device may include a non-volatile memory array and a controller. The non-volatile memory array may include a plurality of dies. Each die of the plurality of data dies may include a plurality of words, where a word is an access unit of a die. The controller may be configured to store user data to a respective first word of at least a first die and a second die of the plurality of data dies. A page of user data may include the user data stored at the respective first words of the at least first die and second die. The controller may also be configured to store parity data to a first portion of a first word of a third die. The controller may be further configured to store metadata to a second portion of the first word of the third die.
