Example Embodiment

[0023] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0024] See figure 2 , figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of the first embodiment of the storage system of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the storage system 10 includes a control device 11 and a storage device 12. The control device 11 includes a system controller 111 and a converter 112. The system controller 111 is connected to the converter 112, and at least two first interfaces 1121 are provided on the converter 112. In the embodiment of the present invention, the converter 112 may be a Serial Attached Small Computer System Interface Controller (Serial Attached Small Computer System Interface Controller, SAS Controller), and the first interface 1121 may be a single-channel serial small computer system (1Lane SAS ) Interface, and the 1LaneSAS interface is converted from a multi-channel serial small computer system interface. Among th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a storage system, a storage appliance and a control appliance. The storage system comprises the control appliance and at least two storage appliances, wherein the control appliance comprises a system controller and a converter, the converter is connected with the system controller, and in addition, the converter is provided with at least two first interfaces, wherein at least two first interfaces are single-passage serial microcomputer system interfaces, or at least two first interfaces are peripheral element expansion x1 interfaces, each storage appliance comprises a connector and a storage unit, each connector comprises a second interface and a third interface, the second interface of each connector is connected with a first interface of the converter, and a third interface of the connector is connected with the storage unit, so the two storage appliances are parallelly connected with the control appliance. Through adopting the mode, the parallel connection of the storage appliance to the control appliance can be realized, the access time delay of the partial storage appliance is reduced, and the storage volume expansion of the storage system is convenient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of storage, in particular to a storage system, a storage device, and a control device. Background technique [0002] With the development of information technology, especially the development of network technology, the amount of electronic data has shown a geometric growth. The way of storing electronic data with a single hard disk can no longer meet the storage requirements of big data. At present, large data is generally stored in a storage array composed of multiple hard disks. In actual application, as the business expands and the amount of data increases, when the storage capacity of the current storage array cannot meet the requirements, the storage array can also be expanded to increase the storage capacity. Therefore, the storage array needs to have good scalability while having good reliability and maintainability. [0003] see figure 1 , figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of a stora...
