ABSTRACT:
A microprocessor-controlled solid state storage system having a controller and non-volatile memory for storing firmware code therein. The controller includes first memory for storing firmware code transferred from the non-volatile memory, and second memory including primitive firmware code stored therein causing execution of a microprocessor for transferring the firmware code from reserved blocks in the non-volatile memory into the first memory upon initialization of the storage system and causing calculation of a checksum for verification of the integrity of the firmware code.
