Claim 13:
14. A method for writing information into a data storage device comprising a plurality of storage elements, each storage element of the plurality of storage elements configured for storing a piece of information, wherein the plurality of storage elements are accessible as a plurality of word sets and as a plurality of slice sets, each word set of the plurality of word sets comprising a set of storage elements, and each slice set of the plurality of slice sets comprising a set of storage elements, and wherein each storage element of the plurality of storage elements is a part of a word set of the plurality of word sets and a part of a slice set of the plurality of slice sets, the method comprising:
obtaining word information and slice information;
executing a write operation to parallelly write the word information into a first word set of the plurality of word sets and the slice information into a first slice set of the plurality of slice sets, wherein the first word set and the first slice set comprise a common storage element defined by an overlap of the first word set and the first slice set in a layout of the plurality of storage elements, wherein a storage element of the plurality of storage elements comprises an information input to receive information to be written, a control input for receiving a control signal and an information output;
receiving, with a control circuit connected to the control input, a first control signal indicating to write word information;
receiving, with the control circuit, a second control signal indicating to write slice information; and
enabling the write operation responsive to at least one of the first control signal and the second control signal.
