Abstract:
A flexible storage system. 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.

Claim (Index 21):
A storage system, comprising:\n a storage motherboard, comprising:\n a first plurality of storage interface connectors; \n a cable connector; and \n a storage adapter circuit having a host side interface connected to the cable connector and a first plurality of storage side interfaces, each connected to a respective storage interface connector of the storage interface connectors, the storage adapter circuit comprising\n a first protocol translator, configured to translate communications from a host interface protocol to a first storage interface protocol \n a second protocol translator, configured to translate communications from a host interface protocol to a second storage interface protocol \n a first consolidation device configured to connect a plurality of first storage devices to the first protocol translator, each of the first storage devices being configured to communicate over the first protocol \n a second consolidation device configured to connect a plurality of second storage devices to the second protocol translator, each of the second storage devices being configured to communicate over the second protocol \n \n a storage adapter circuit controller configured to: \n determine \n check terminology against spec; add dependent claim with second plurality of storage side interfaces configured to support, at the first motherboard connector:\n a first storage interface; and a host interface; and \n the first storage interface of the first storage adapter circuit being different from the first storage interface of the second storage adapter circuit, and/or the host interface of the first storage adapter circuit being different from the host interface of the second storage adapter circuit.
