ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a controller system including a common controller, a first interface, a second interface, and an adapter. The first interface is used to receive and to send data according to a first protocol having a format useable by a computer system. The common controller is coupled between the first interface and the second interface to translate between the first protocol and the second protocol, the second protocol is used by a memory coupled to the common controller. The second interface is used to store and to retrieve data from the memory according to the second protocol. The adapter function can be coupled between the memory and the common controller. The memory forms a response to a request by the computer system, with the response including at least one of (A) storing information, (B) retrieving information, and (C) providing status information.
