Iterative code system for streaming hard disk drives (HDDs). A novel approach is presented by which any of a wide variety of error correcting codes can be applied within devices that include or interface to HDDs or other memory storage devices that provide streaming information. A means is provided by which at least two separate clock domains are employed such that the streaming information can be provided at a first rate according to a first clock domain, and the decoding processing of the streaming information can be provided at a second rate according to a second clock domain. Using this approach, a wide variety of error correcting codes can employed, including those whose decoding processing would not be possible if required to operate at the typically high rates at which streaming information is oftentimes provided from HDDs or other memory storage devices.
