35. An apparatus, comprising:
-
a host controller coupled to a number of memory devices external to a host system and to a host processor on the host system; wherein the host controller locates commands and device class dependent information that is stored in memory associated with the host system using a pointer stored in a register in the host controller that directs the host controller to the commands, wherein the host controller transmits the commands, which are based on device class dependent information and are built by the host processor in the memory associated with the host system, to the number of memory devices external to the host controller, and wherein the number of memory devices execute the commands with a memory device controller on the number of memory devices. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
