    Abstract: A memory system for storing data is disclosed, the memory system including a plurality of memory devices configured to store data, each memory device having a plurality of bits, the memory devices configured and associated to work together as a rank to respond to a request; a memory control circuit associated with the plurality of memory devices and configured to output command and control signals to the plurality of memory devices; a detector for detecting a bit error in an operation; and a controller for remapping the bit error to a spare bit lane in response to the detector detecting the bit error.
