1. An apparatus comprising:

  • a first memory controller that corresponds with a first type of non-volatile memory device;

    a second memory controller that corresponds to a second type of non-volatile memory device, wherein the second type of non-volatile memory device is different from the first type of non-volatile memory device;

    an physical layer (PHY) interface; and

    an interface controller coupled to the PHY interface for controlling signal transmission by the PHY interface;

    wherein the PHY interface is selectively configurable or is user-configured to allow the PHY interface to communicate with one or more memory devices belonging to the first type, the second type, or both;

    wherein both the first memory controller corresponding with the first type of non-volatile memory device and the second memory controller corresponding with the second type of non-volatile memory device are implemented on a same chip, and wherein the first memory controller and the second memory controller are different from each other.
