MAPPING OBJECT INTERFACE INTO A POWERED STORAGE DEVICE SYSTEM |
摘要 |
Apparatus and associated method contemplating: operating a storage server having access to a plurality of storage devices, at least a first storage device of the plurality of storage devices defining a first bank and at least a second storage device of the plurality of storage devices defining a second bank; during a first time interval, energizing the first bank to enable data transfer, and de-energizing the second bank to disable data transfer; during the first time interval, mapping data received from the storage server to the first bank; during a second time interval that begins before a storage capacity of the first bank is full, de-energizing the first bank to disable data transfer, and energizing the second bank to enable data transfer; and during the second time interval, mapping the data received from the storage server to the second bank. |

1. A method comprising:
operating a storage controller having data storage access to each of a plurality of storage devices grouped into a first bank of storage devices and a second bank of different storage devices, and the storage controller caching application data from a host pending transfer to at least one of the banks of storage devices; during a first time interval, energizing the first bank of storage devices to enable data transfer; during the first time interval, mapping the cached application data to the first bank of storage devices; during a second time interval that begins before a storage capacity of the first bank of storage devices is full, energizing the second bank of storage devices to enable data transfer; and during the second time interval, mapping the cached data to the second bank of storage devices. |
