ABSTRACT:
A flash electrically-erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) array and a method for allowing a host computer to detect a plurality of different power-expending modes into which a storage device may be placed for operation, to select a particular one of those modes to match the power abilities of the host computer, and then to place the storage device in the proper power mode of operation to best function with the host system.
