ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a portable mass storage device may include a bus hub having a first port to couple to a bus and other ports to connect to multiple multi-channel memory controllers, where each memory controller is coupled to multiple non-volatile storage arrays, and the memory controllers can independently service the arrays to enable overlapping data transfer operations. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
