A dynamic logical unit number system is implemented as a storage device that includes processing logic and storage functionality. A storage device may be configured to provide a first logical unit number when the storage device is attached to a computer system or other computing device. The storage device through its dynamic logical unit number system provides a configuration interface through which the computer system can configure additional logical unit numbers and reconfigure existing logical unit numbers of the storage device. After the redefinition of the logical unit numbers, the dynamic logical unit number system may cause a reestablishment of the connection between the storage device and the computer system. Upon establishing the new connection, the computer system recognizes the redefined logical unit numbers and treats each logical unit number as a separate storage device, including assigning a different number to each logical unit number.
