First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method re-synchronizing a secure and scalable solid state disk system (SSDS) with a host, the method comprising:
- asserting a busy status to the requesting upstream host system or the upper-level virtual storage controller;
sending an Identify command to a downstream storage device list;
testing the identified downstream storage devices;
initializing a crypto engine; and
starting an interrupt processor to synchronise the SSDS to the host.
