摘要: A memory/storage module is provided that implements a solid state drive compatible with Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) or Attached SCSI (SAS) signaling on double-data-rate socket. detachable daughter card may be coupled to the memory for converting bus voltage second devices module. Additionally, hybrid host system supports either DDR-compatible modules and/or SATA/SAS-compatible modules. In one example, couples first (DDR3 socket) obtain other signals, but uses data transfers. another repurpose/reuse electrical paths typically carry non-data signals traffic to/from Such permits concurrent same bus.
