Abstract:
1. A redundant array of independent disks (RAID) controlled semiconductor storage device (SSD)-based system, comprising: a high-speed, non-volatile host interface; a RAID controller coupled to the high-speed, non-volatile host interface; and a set of memory units coupled to the RAID controller, each of the set of memory units comprising a main controller coupled to the RAID controller, a SSD memory disk unit coupled to the main controller, and a cache memory unit coupled to the main controller such that hit ratios are increased; wherein the RAID controller comprises a disk mount coupled to the set of memory units and a disk monitoring unit coupled to the disk mount such that the set of memory units is mounted on the disk mount and is detected and monitored by the disk monitoring unit, and a disk plug and play controller coupled to the disk monitoring unit and the disk mount for controlling the disk mount; and wherein the disk monitoring unit is directly connected with the disk mount, the disk plug and play controller, the high-speed host interface, and a disk controller that is connected with a first host interface, respectively.
