Memory controller, storage device, server virtualization system, and storage device recognizing method performed in the server virtualization system

摘要

A memory controller, a storage device (SD), a server virtualization system, and an SD recognizing method performed in the server virtualization system are provided. The memory controller includes a processor configured to generate a plurality of different pieces of identify device (ID) data in response to an identify device command received from a host so that the host recognizes a single physical SD as a plurality of physical storage devices (SDs), and a host interface which transmits the generated plurality of pieces of identify device data to the host.

主权项

1. A memory controller comprising:
a processor configured to receive an identity device command from a host, determine N virtual storage devices (SDs) supported by a single physical storage device (SD), and generate a unique identifier for each of the determined N virtual SDs; and a host interface which transmits the generated identifiers to the host, wherein each identifier identifies a different physical SD for enabling the host to recognize the single physical SD as N distinct physical SDs, and wherein N is a natural number equal to or greater than two.
