ABSTRACT:
The invention is a bus bridge for connecting a computer to peripheral devices over plurality of different bus interface configurations. The bus bridge comprises a motherboard and daughterboards. The daughterboards can be connected to the motherboard or to other daughterboards to create a new bus interface configuration. The bus bridge detects the new bus interface configuration and retrieves operating parameters to implement the new bus interface configuration. In some embodiments of the invention, the bus interface configuration is a fiber channel to the computer, a first small computer system interface to a first group of the peripheral devices, and a second small computer system interface to a second group of the peripheral devices.
