Appl. No.:

10/318006

Inventors:

Randall Webb - Hillsboro OR, US

International Classification:

G06F015/173

US Classification:

709/223000

Abstract:

A method of controlling at least a light emitting diode (LED) indicator associated with a port included a switch in a data network is provided. Such a method comprises identifying a port in the switch as either a protocol aware port or a non-protocol aware port; and generating a LED message to control operation of the LED indicator associated with the port, when the port is identified as a non-protocol aware port.

Appl. No.:

11/836244

Inventors:

Randall K. Webb - Hillsboro OR, US
Jawad B. Khan - Hillsboro OR, US

International Classification:

G06F 12/02

US Classification:

711102, 711E12002

Abstract:

To provide a feasible means to connect many non-volatile memory modules into a very large capacity solid-state memory, a group modules may be connected in a serial manner to form a unidirectional loop with the memory controller. In some embodiments the same serial connection may be used to communicate commands, write data, and/or configuration data from the memory controller to each memory module, and to communicate read data and/or configuration status from each memory module to the memory controller. Some memory controllers may have capacity to handle multiple such loops.

Robert W. Faber - Hillsboro OR, US

International Classification:

G06F 3/00

US Classification:

710 19

Abstract:

In some embodiments, after a hold off time following issuance of a memory command has elapsed, a status read operation is performed to determine a status of the memory command. In some embodiments, if the memory command has not yet completed, a polling interval is used to perform a status read operation to determine the status of the memory command after the polling interval has expired, and repeating the process until the memory command has been completed. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

International Classification:

H05K 7/14
G06F 1/20
G06F 1/18
H05K 7/20

Abstract:

Data storage system connectors are described for a parallel array of dense memory cards that allow high airflow. In one example, a connector has a horizontal plane board having a plurality of memory connectors aligned in a row and a plurality of external interfaces, a plurality of memory cards, each having an edge connector at one end of the memory card to connect to a respective memory connector of the board, each memory card extending horizontally parallel to each other memory card and extending vertically and orthogonally from the board, and a plurality of interface connectors each to connect an edge connector to a respective board connector, the interface connectors extending horizontally from the one end of the memory cards and vertically to the respective plane board connector.

International Classification:

G06F 1/20
H05K 7/14

Abstract:

A data storage system with a parallel array of dense memory cards and high airflow is described. In one example, a rack-mount enclosure has a horizontal plane board with memory connectors and external interfaces. Memory cards each have a connector to connect to a respective memory connector of the horizontal plane board, each memory card extending parallel to each other memory card from the front of the enclosure and extending orthogonally from the first side of the horizontal plane board. A power supply proximate the rear of the enclosure and the first side of the horizontal plane board provides power to the memory cards through the memory card connectors and has a fan to pull air from the front of the enclosure between the memory cards and to push air out the rear of the enclosure.

International Classification:

G06F 3/06
G09G 3/34
G06T 1/60
G06F 11/07

Abstract:

A data storage system is described with a persistent status display. In one example, the system has an external housing, a persistent display attached to the exterior of the housing, a display controller within the housing coupled to the display to write status data to the display, a memory array to store data within the housing, a memory controller within the housing to control the operation of the memory array and to determine a status of the memory array, the memory controller being coupled to the display controller to send status data to the display controller to write to the display, and an exterior connector coupled to the memory controller to send data from the memory to an external device.
