Feb 23, 2023 at 7:46 comment added NB_1907 Thank you for your response. Actually I didn't consider the error correction when asking this question. The extra space is defined as "integrity space" and I considered it as "cryptographic data integrity" and I thought maybe I can use this space for tag storage. I guess what is meant by data integrity here is making sure that data is readable, even when the write process is imperfect.

Feb 17, 2023 at 13:04 comment added poncho Is the extra space in the disk sector needed for (noncryptographical) error correction? Would it still be needed for that purpose? If so, well, you can't use that for another purpose (without losing the reliability that the error correction affords). Now, it might be possible to combine error correction and integrity check - however, that would be quite nonstandard...
