Abstract:
A storage cartridge is provided comprising a system connector configured to be hot-pluggable with an external receiving system. The storage cartridge includes a plurality of storage receiving connectors, each of which can be configured to receive either a hot-pluggable storage drive or a storage drive that has not designed to be natively hot-pluggable. In some embodiments, each of the plurality of storage receiving connectors is configured to receive a storage drive that has not been designed to be natively hot-pluggable. In addition, electrical connections are provided between the system connector and the plurality of storage receiving connectors that enable a plurality of the not natively hot-pluggable storage drives engaged with the storage cartridge to communicate with the external receiving system via the system connector configured to be hot-pluggable.

Claim (Index 1):
A storage cartridge system, comprising:\n a system connector configured to be hot-pluggable with an external receiving system; a plurality of storage receiving connectors, where in each of the plurality of storage receiving connectors is configured to receive a storage drive that has not been designed to be natively hot-pluggable; electrical connections between the system connector and the plurality of storage receiving connectors that enable a plurality of the not natively hot-pluggable storage drives engaged with the storage cartridge system to communicate with the external receiving system via the system connector configured to be hot-pluggable; and a multiplexer configured to selectively connect two pins of the system connector corresponding to a clock and a side communication data channel to a selected storage receiving connector of the plurality of storage receiving connectors selected based on a selection signal received in-band via at least one of the two pins of the system connector corresponding to the clock and the side communication data channel, wherein the multiplexer is configured to consume the selection signal provided in-band and remove the selection signal from the side communication data channel connected between the system connector and the selected storage receiving connector, and wherein the side communication data channel is separate from content data communication channels of each of the plurality of storage receiving connectors connected to the system connector.
