摘要 |
The present invention is directed to a method and system for providing, a host input/output (I/O) module, a controller and application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) for utilization in transparent switched fabric data storage transport. The system implements I/O modules capable of translating between communication protocols for providing common message passing multi-channel data transport for data storage while providing apparent I/O circuit exclusivity to controllers. Implementing the system of the present invention allows for a common data transport system permitting component scalability and virtualization.
