Abstract

A multi-protocol IO infrastructure for a flexible storage platform is disclosed. A storage motherboard accommodates, on a suitable connector, a storage adapter circuit that provides protocol translation between a host bus interface and a storage interface, and that provides routing, to accommodate a plurality of mass storage devices that may be connected to the storage adapter circuit through the storage motherboard. The storage adapter circuit may be replaced with a circuit supporting a different host interface or a different storage interface.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority and benefit to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 158,714, filed May 8, 2015, and U.S. Application No. 15 / 090,409, filed April 4, 2016, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference merged here. technical field [0002] One or more aspects according to the embodiments of the present invention relate to data storage, and more specifically, relate to an infrastructure for providing a multi-protocol storage interface. Background technique [0003] A modern computer system may include processing resources, non-volatile memory, and persistent storage. Persistent storage communicates with local processing resources through a storage protocol for storage resources. For example, a storage resource may support one of the described protocols because of differences in the protocols, differences in connector types, cable types, trace types, and / or data path widths, or other variations in protocol specifics. protocol and the compute...
