An apparatus comprising an interface, a first port, and a second port. The interface may be configured to connect to a host computer. The first port may be configured to connect to a first set of storage devices using a first protocol. The second port may be configured to connect to a second set of storage devices using a second protocol. The apparatus may provide support for the first protocol and the second protocol to allow communication using both the first protocol and the second protocol through the interface.
