ABSTRACT:
A circuit providing a wireless connection for receipt and/or transmission of electronic signals between a storage device and an external device such as a host system, a storage subsystem controller, or a storage subsystem. The wireless connection circuit may include a wireless data connection to provide wireless exchange of data signals between the storage device and the external device. The wireless connection circuit may also provide an inductive coupling for power supplied to the storage device. In one aspect hereof the wireless connectivity (data, power or both) may be provided as enhanced circuits on a controller circuit integrated with the storage device. In another aspect hereof, the wireless connectivity may be provided as an adapter or interface circuit coupled to an existing storage device interface to adapt wired connections of the storage device to an external device through a wireless signal exchange protocol.
