Description

201102826 VI. Description of the invention: [Technical field of invention] A cocoa lifting operation speed The present invention relates to a storage module, in particular, a storage module and a working method thereof. [Prior Art] With the development and advancement of electronic technology,

Storage and transmission of data transmission I¥tρ sigh storage, that is, the Handenhan device has also been improved, and it has been researched in the direction of large capacity and miniaturization: 疋 storage for flash memory The storage capacity, therefore, χ, and greatly enhance the solid-state hard one formed by the body stack = the wafer replaces the traditional wafer, so it can also be called the cut-off dish = the stone eve: the::-type hard disk device' not only has a large capacity, the degree of Two: = better low power consumption, strong earthquake resistance, low voice and low heat, so it can be stored safely (4), based on the above advantages, 11-disc storage device has gradually replaced the traditional magnetic hard disk device, and often Applicable in small financial systems or embedded systems. At the same time, in response to the improvement of various storage devices, the connection busbars of various transmission interfaces have also been developed and evolved, for example, Integrated Device Electronics (IDE), Universal Array Bus (Universal Series Bus, USB) ), 1394 (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Association 1394, IEEE1394) standard interface, etc., where the IDE bus is also known as AT Attachment (ΑΤΑ) bus or parallel AT add-on (Parallel AT Attachment, ΡΑΤΑ) bus, etc. 201102826 The most popular transmission specification on the market is the second generation Universal Serial Bus (USB2.0) interface. Almost all transmission devices have USB2.0 connectors, however, due to data transmission. With the increase in the amount and the demand for transmission speed, the USB2 〇 transmission upper limit (480 Mbps) has gradually become insufficient, so in order to meet the transmission requirements of various large-capacity portable storage devices, a higher-speed external transmission specification has been developed. Serial ATA (SATA) interface, • By extending the interface rate and lower resource load than the USB and IEEE!%# interfaces, the SATA interface can significantly increase the transfer speed to 3 (} bps, providing A higher level of configuration and capacity expansion to break through the bottleneck of today's portable storage devices, and is widely used for data transmission of various large-capacity storage devices.

Significantly low, and the capacity, speed and stability of traditional magnetic hard disk operations are also worse than those of solid state drives when transferring large amounts of data through the SATA transmission interface. ^When a field-like user wants to expand the storage and storage of the computer system in daily use, he usually buys a hard disk and connects it to the corresponding port on the motherboard. However, Since the conventional magnetic hard disk is bulky and needs to be fixed in a frame of the computer system to reduce vibration, when the user wants to use two hard disks at the same time, the 201102826 is required to be twice as large. The space, and the need to connect through two sets of connectors separately' makes the connection work more complicated, not only lacks and affects its expandability. In view of this, it is an urgent need to solve the problem of how to develop a storage module and a method for operating the same that can improve the above-mentioned conventional disadvantages.
