Summary:Methods, circuits, and disk drive that correct errors in data that is temporarily stored in a memory buffer are disclosed. An error detection code and an error correction code are generated for data. The data, the error detection code, and the error correction code are stored in the memory buffer. The data is retrieved from the memory buffer and error detected using the error detection code. In response to detecting an error, the error correction code is applied to the retrieved data to generate corrected data.
