Description
本創作係與儲存裝置有關,特別有關於儲存裝置內部所使用的記憶體連接架構的改良。This creation is related to storage devices, and in particular to improvements in the memory connection architecture used within the storage device.
一般來說,在以揮發性記憶體(volatile memory)所組成的儲存裝置中,揮發性記憶體通常都是以串接的型式,連接在同一條匯流排上,因此在進行資料存取時,容易會有訊號反射(reflection)的問題產生。Generally, in a storage device composed of a volatile memory, volatile memory is usually connected in series in a series connection, so that when data is accessed, It is easy to have problems with signal reflection.
如第一圖與第二圖所示,分別為現有技術的第一記憶體架構圖與第二記憶體架構圖。如圖中所示,一儲存裝置主要具有一控制晶片11、一匯流排12及複數揮發性記憶體13,其中該控制晶片11係通過單一條該匯流排12串接該複數揮發性記憶體13。如第一圖所示,當該控制晶片11存取第一個該揮發性記憶體13時,雖然其他的揮發性記憶體13沒有被存取,但仍然會有微小電流21流至各該揮發性記憶體13。並且,當該匯流排12的長度越長(意即,該匯流排12上串接的該揮發性記憶體13數量越多)時,其後方可容納的該電流21就越大。As shown in the first figure and the second figure, respectively, the first memory architecture diagram and the second memory architecture diagram of the prior art. As shown in the figure, a storage device mainly has a control wafer 11, a bus bar 12 and a plurality of volatile memories 13, wherein the control wafer 11 is connected in series to the plurality of volatile memories 13 through a single bus bar 12. . As shown in the first figure, when the control wafer 11 accesses the first volatile memory 13, although the other volatile memory 13 is not accessed, there is still a small current 21 flowing to each of the volatiles. Sexual memory 13. Moreover, when the length of the bus bar 12 is longer (that is, the more the number of the volatile memory bodies 13 connected in series on the bus bar 12), the current 21 that can be accommodated behind it is larger.
如此一來,如第二圖所示,因為後方的該些揮發性記憶體13並沒有執行資料存取的動作,故該些電流21會被反射回來,形成一反射電流22,此即為訊號反射(reflection)的現象。而如上所述,當該匯流排12上串接的該揮發性記憶體13數量越多時,其後方可容納的該電流21就越大,故反射回來的該反射電流22就越大。如此一來,該些反射電流22將會對原始的存取訊號與資料產生干擾,甚至造成訊號與資料的錯誤。In this way, as shown in the second figure, since the volatile memory 13 at the rear does not perform the data access operation, the currents 21 are reflected back to form a reflected current 22, which is a signal. The phenomenon of reflection. As described above, the greater the number of the volatile memory 13 connected in series on the bus bar 12, the larger the current 21 that can be accommodated behind it, so that the reflected current 22 reflected back is larger. As a result, the reflected currents 22 will interfere with the original access signals and data, and even cause errors in signals and data.
有鑑於上述問題,便有人提出內部終端電阻(On-Die Termination,ODT)的技術,以解決訊號反射的問題。一般來說,要使用ODT技術,該揮發性記憶體13要內建有ODT腳位,如此該控制晶片11才能通過ODT腳位來啟動該揮發性記憶體13的ODT功能(如DDR3即內建有ODT功能)。ODT功能啟動後,主要是在該揮發性記憶體13中模擬產生一個具有特定電阻值的電阻器,藉以,當該揮發性記憶體13收到該電流21時,會導向該電阻器,而不會反射回去並形成該反射電流22。In view of the above problems, an On-Die Termination (ODT) technique has been proposed to solve the problem of signal reflection. Generally, to use the ODT technology, the volatile memory 13 has an ODT pin built in, so that the control chip 11 can activate the ODT function of the volatile memory 13 through the ODT pin (for example, DDR3 is built-in). Have ODT function). After the ODT function is activated, a resistor having a specific resistance value is simulated in the volatile memory 13 so that when the volatile memory 13 receives the current 21, it will be directed to the resistor instead of It will be reflected back and form the reflected current 22.
然而,當該揮發性記憶體13開啟ODT功能時,該儲存裝置整體的功耗會增加,故導致耗電量提高,並且整體的溫度也會提高。經由本案申請人之實驗發現,在室內溫度23度的狀態下連續存取該揮發性記憶體13三十分鐘,則在ODT功能關閉的情況下,該揮發性記憶體13的平均溫度為33度。其中,讀取該揮發性記憶體13的平均耗電流為1.1A,平均功率為1.65W,而寫入該揮發性記憶體13的平均耗電流為1.2A,平均功率為1.8W。反之,在ODT功能啟用的情況下,該揮發性記憶體13的平均溫度為37.9度。其中,讀取該揮發性記憶體13的平均耗電流為1.2A,平均功率為1.8W,而寫入該揮發性記憶體13的平均耗電流為2.8A,平均功率為4.2W。However, when the volatile memory 13 turns on the ODT function, the overall power consumption of the storage device increases, resulting in an increase in power consumption and an increase in overall temperature. According to the experiment of the applicant, it was found that the volatile memory 13 was continuously accessed for 30 minutes under the indoor temperature of 23 degrees, and the average temperature of the volatile memory 13 was 33 degrees when the ODT function was turned off. . The average current consumption of the volatile memory 13 is 1.1A, the average power is 1.65W, and the average current consumption of the volatile memory 13 is 1.2A, and the average power is 1.8W. On the other hand, in the case where the ODT function is enabled, the average temperature of the volatile memory 13 is 37.9 degrees. The average current consumption of the volatile memory 13 is 1.2A, the average power is 1.8W, and the average current consumption of the volatile memory 13 is 2.8A, and the average power is 4.2W.
如上所述,雖然通過ODT功能可以有效解決reflection所帶來的問題,然而,開啟ODT功能所伴隨的高溫及高耗電量,係為本領域中的技術人員帶來相當大的困擾。有鑑於此,如何通過ODT以外的技術來解決現有的reflection問題,即為本領域中的技術人員所潛心研究的課題。As described above, although the problem caused by reflection can be effectively solved by the ODT function, the high temperature and high power consumption associated with turning on the ODT function are quite troublesome for those skilled in the art. In view of this, how to solve the existing reflection problem by techniques other than ODT, that is, a problem that is studied by those skilled in the art.
本創作之主要目的,在於提供一種儲存裝置的記憶體連接架構,係可藉由改變記憶體的連接架構,解決因訊號反射現象而令原始訊號產生雜訊、或造成訊號干擾的問題。The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a memory connection structure of a storage device, which can solve the problem that the original signal generates noise or causes signal interference by changing the connection structure of the memory.
為達上述目的,本創作提供了一種儲存裝置,該儲存裝置包括一電路基板、一記憶體控制器、一匯流排及一記憶體模組,其中記憶體控制器、匯流排及記憶體模組分別電性連接於電路基板上。記憶體模組由複數記憶體插槽及複數揮發性記憶體組成,複數揮發性記憶體分別通過對應的記憶體插槽連接於同一條匯流排,並通過匯流排與記憶體控制器連接。其中,匯流排上具有一個以上的接點,並且每一接點分別連接二個記憶體插槽。連接到同一接點的二記憶體插槽分別設置於電路基板的正面與背面上的對應位置,並且二記憶體插槽與記憶體控制器之間的距離相等。To achieve the above objective, the present invention provides a storage device including a circuit substrate, a memory controller, a bus bar and a memory module, wherein the memory controller, the bus bar and the memory module They are electrically connected to the circuit substrate. The memory module is composed of a plurality of memory slots and a plurality of volatile memories, and the plurality of volatile memories are respectively connected to the same bus bar through the corresponding memory slots, and are connected to the memory controller through the bus bars. Wherein, the bus bar has more than one contact, and each contact is connected to two memory slots. The two memory slots connected to the same contact are respectively disposed at corresponding positions on the front and back sides of the circuit substrate, and the distance between the two memory slots and the memory controller is equal.
本創作對照相關技術所能達成的技術功效在於,在匯流排的同一個接點上,設置兩個上、下相對的記憶體插槽及揮發性記憶體,當產生訊號反射(reflection)現象時,上方反射的電流絕大部分可與下方反射的電流互相抵消,並僅留下不會對存取訊號產生干擾之微小電流。如此一來,即使於本創作的儲存裝置中使用不具備內部終端電阻(On-Die Termination,ODT)功能的記憶體,或是不開啟記憶體內建的ODT功能,仍可解決訊號反射的問題。並且,在不需使用ODT功能的情況下,本創作的儲存裝置可較相關技術的儲存裝置更為省電,並且保有較低較穩定之工作溫度。The technical effect achieved by the present invention in comparison with the related art is that two upper and lower relative memory slots and volatile memory are disposed on the same contact of the bus bar, when signal reflection occurs. Most of the current reflected above can cancel out the current reflected by the lower side, leaving only a small current that does not interfere with the access signal. In this way, even if the memory device that does not have the On-Die Termination (ODT) function is used in the storage device of the present invention, or the ODT function built in the memory is not turned on, the problem of signal reflection can be solved. Moreover, the storage device of the present invention can save more power than the related art storage device without using the ODT function, and maintain a lower and stable working temperature.
再者,通過本創作的連接架構,可有效消除揮發性記憶體反射的電流,故在同一條匯流排上可以連接更多組的揮發性記憶體,藉此可有效提昇儲存裝置所能負擔的儲存容量。Furthermore, the connection structure of the present invention can effectively eliminate the current reflected by the volatile memory, so that more sets of volatile memory can be connected to the same busbar, thereby effectively increasing the load of the storage device.

本創作中,該儲存裝置3係通過該傳輸介面32連接該電腦主機板41,藉以自該電腦主機板41接收資料,並且經由該控制器33的控制,將資料寫入該些揮發性記憶體342中。值得一提的是,該些揮發性記憶體342可為複數個獨立的儲存空間,分別儲存不同的資料;或者,該些揮發性記憶體342亦可組成一個具有大容量儲存空間的該記憶體模組34。以三十個該揮發性記憶體342為例,該控制器33可將該複數揮發性記憶體342視為三十個獨立的儲存空間(例如三十個硬碟),或視為單一個具有三十倍容量的儲存空間(例如一個超大容量的硬碟),但不加以限定。In the present invention, the storage device 3 is connected to the computer motherboard 41 through the transmission interface 32, thereby receiving data from the computer motherboard 41, and writing data to the volatile memory via the control of the controller 33. 342. It is to be noted that the volatile memory 342 may be a plurality of independent storage spaces for storing different data respectively; or the volatile memory 342 may also constitute a memory having a large storage space. Module 34. Taking thirty of the volatile memory 342 as an example, the controller 33 can treat the complex volatile memory 342 as thirty independent storage spaces (for example, thirty hard disks), or as one single 30 times the capacity of the storage space (such as a large capacity hard disk), but not limited.
如第六圖所示,該控制器33係同時電性連接該記憶體模組34及該備份記憶體模組35。該控制器33主要將資料儲存於該記憶體模組34中,並且該控制器33會於必要時(例如該儲存裝置3斷電前),控制該記憶體模組34,以將該些揮發性記憶體342內的資料備份儲存至該備份記憶體模組35中,藉此避免因斷電而造成資料消失的問題。並且,該控制器33同樣會於需要時(例如該儲存裝置3重新通電啟動時),控制該備份記憶體模組35,以將該些非揮發性記憶體351內的備份資料回存至該記憶體模組34中,藉以,通過該些揮發性記憶體342來讓使用者得到極快速的資料存取速度。As shown in the sixth figure, the controller 33 is electrically connected to the memory module 34 and the backup memory module 35 at the same time. The controller 33 mainly stores the data in the memory module 34, and the controller 33 controls the memory module 34 to volatilize when necessary (for example, before the storage device 3 is powered off). The data in the memory 342 is backed up and stored in the backup memory module 35, thereby avoiding the problem of data disappearing due to power failure. Moreover, the controller 33 also controls the backup memory module 35 to restore the backup data in the non-volatile memory 351 to the same when needed (for example, when the storage device 3 is powered on again). In the memory module 34, the volatile memory 342 is used to allow the user to obtain extremely fast data access speed.
續請同時參閱第七圖及第八圖,分別為第一具體實施例的第一記憶體架構圖及第二記憶體架構圖。本創作中,該控制器33主要係通過單一條的該匯流排37來連接所有的該記憶體插槽341,並通過該些記憶體插槽341來存取該些揮發性記憶體342。如第七圖與第八圖所示,該匯流排37上係具有一個以上的接點,圖中係以一接點A與一接點B為例,但不加以限定。該匯流排37上的每一個接點A、B分別用以連接上、下二個該記憶體插槽341,並分別通過該二記憶體插槽341存取上、下兩個對應的該揮發性記憶體342。其中,連接到同一個接點的該二記憶體插槽341,係分別設置於該電路基板31的該正面311與該背面312上的對應位置,並且該二記憶體插槽341與該控制器33之間的距離相等。Continuing to refer to the seventh and eighth figures, respectively, the first memory architecture diagram and the second memory architecture diagram of the first embodiment. In the present invention, the controller 33 mainly connects all of the memory slots 341 through a single bus bar 37, and accesses the volatile memory 342 through the memory slots 341. As shown in the seventh and eighth figures, the bus bar 37 has more than one contact, and a contact A and a contact B are taken as an example, but are not limited. Each of the contacts A and B on the bus bar 37 is connected to the upper and lower memory slots 341, and respectively accesses the upper and lower corresponding volatilizations through the two memory slots 341. Sex memory 342. The two memory slots 341 connected to the same contact are respectively disposed on corresponding positions on the front surface 311 and the back surface 312 of the circuit substrate 31, and the two memory slots 341 and the controller are respectively disposed. The distance between 33 is equal.
以第七圖為例,一第一記憶體插槽3411與一第二記憶體插槽3412共同連接該匯流排37上的一接點A,其中該第一記憶體插槽3411插接一第一記憶體3421,該第二記憶體插槽3412插接一第二記憶體3422。該第一記憶體插槽3411與該第二記憶體插槽3412分別設置在該電路基板31的該正面311與該背面312上的對應位置,並且該第一記憶體插槽3411與該控制器33之間的距離,和該第二記憶體插槽3412與該控制器33之間的距離相等。For example, in the seventh figure, a first memory slot 3411 and a second memory slot 3412 are connected to a contact A on the bus bar 37, wherein the first memory slot 3411 is plugged into a first A memory 3421, the second memory slot 3412 is plugged into a second memory 3422. The first memory slot 3411 and the second memory slot 3412 are respectively disposed at corresponding positions on the front surface 311 and the back surface 312 of the circuit substrate 31, and the first memory slot 3411 and the controller are The distance between 33 and the distance between the second memory slot 3412 and the controller 33 are equal.
第七圖中還揭露了一第三記憶體插槽3413與一第四記憶體插槽3414,該第三記憶體插槽3413與該第四記憶體插槽3414共同連接該匯流排37上的一接點B,並且該第三記憶體插槽3413插接一第三記憶體3423,該第四記憶體插槽3414插接一第四記憶體3424。同樣地,該第三記憶體插槽3413與該第四記憶體插槽3414分別設置在該電路基板31的該正面311與該背面312上的對應位置,並且該第三記憶體插槽3413與該控制器33之間的距離,和該第四記憶體插槽3414與該控制器33之間的距離相等。A third memory slot 3413 and a fourth memory slot 3414 are also disclosed in the seventh figure. The third memory slot 3413 and the fourth memory slot 3414 are connected to the busbar 37. A contact B is inserted, and the third memory slot 3413 is plugged into a third memory 3423. The fourth memory slot 3414 is plugged into a fourth memory 3424. Similarly, the third memory slot 3413 and the fourth memory slot 3414 are respectively disposed at corresponding positions on the front surface 311 and the back surface 312 of the circuit substrate 31, and the third memory slot 3413 is The distance between the controllers 33 and the distance between the fourth memory slot 3414 and the controller 33 are equal.
是以,如第七圖所示,當該控制器33存取該第一記憶體3421時,會有微小電流跑到該第二記憶體3422、該第三記憶體3423與該第四記憶體3424。而當訊號反射(reflection)現象產生,會因為該第二記憶體3422、該第三記憶體3423與該第四記憶體3424並未執行資料的存取動作,故會將流過來的電流反射回去。上述的訊號反射現象為本領域中的公知常識,在此不再贅述。Therefore, as shown in the seventh figure, when the controller 33 accesses the first memory 3421, a slight current flows to the second memory 3422, the third memory 3423, and the fourth memory. 3424. When the signal reflection phenomenon occurs, the second memory 3422, the third memory 3423, and the fourth memory 3424 do not perform data access operations, so the current flowing back is reflected back. . The above-mentioned signal reflection phenomenon is a common knowledge in the art, and will not be described herein.
而如第八圖所示,本實施例中,因為該接點B分別連接上、下兩個記憶體插槽(即該第三記憶體插槽3413與該第四記憶體插槽3414),並且該第三記憶體插槽3413至該控制器33之間的距離,相等於該第四記憶體插槽3414至該控制器33之間的距離,因此,該第三記憶體3423所反射的電流,恰好會與該第四記憶體3424所反射的電流互相抵消。換言之,該第三記憶體3423與該第四記憶體3424反射的電流並不會流回該控制器33;或者,上述兩者的電流互相抵消後,僅會殘留下極微小,並且不會對訊號產生干擾的電流並流回該控制器33。As shown in the eighth embodiment, in this embodiment, since the contacts B are respectively connected to the upper and lower memory slots (ie, the third memory slot 3413 and the fourth memory slot 3414), The distance between the third memory slot 3413 and the controller 33 is equal to the distance between the fourth memory slot 3414 and the controller 33, and therefore, the third memory 3423 reflects The current, which coincides with the current reflected by the fourth memory 3424, cancels each other out. In other words, the current reflected by the third memory 3423 and the fourth memory 3424 does not flow back to the controller 33; or, after the currents of the two are canceled each other, only the bottom is tiny, and the pair is not The signal produces a disturbing current and flows back to the controller 33.
值得一提的是,本本創作主要是藉由該些揮發性記憶體342(及該些記憶體插槽341)的特殊連接架構,讓該匯流排37的接點上、下兩個揮發性記憶體342所反射的電流可以互相抵消。因此,本創作中,該些記憶體插槽341與該些揮發性記憶體342的數量主要係以雙數為主。It is worth mentioning that the present invention mainly uses the special connection structure of the volatile memory 342 (and the memory slots 341) to allow the upper and lower two volatile memories of the busbar 37 to be connected. The currents reflected by body 342 can cancel each other out. Therefore, in the present creation, the number of the memory slots 341 and the volatile memory 342 are mainly dominated by a double number.
續請同時參閱第九圖及第十圖,分別為本創作的第二具體實施例的第一記憶體架構圖及第二記憶體架構圖。上述第七圖與第八圖的實施例中,該些記憶體插槽341與該些揮發性記憶體342的數量主要係以四個為例。而如第九圖及第十圖所示,於另一實施例中,該些記憶體插槽341的數量較佳可為八個,該些揮發性記憶體342的數量較佳可為八個,並且該匯流排37較佳可具有至少四個接點A、B、C、D。其中,該四個接點A、B、C、D分別連接上、下兩組該記憶體插槽341,並通過該二記憶體插槽341分別存取上、下兩個對應的該揮發性記憶體342。Please refer to the ninth and tenth drawings at the same time, which are respectively the first memory architecture diagram and the second memory architecture diagram of the second embodiment of the creation. In the above embodiments of the seventh and eighth embodiments, the number of the memory slots 341 and the number of the volatile memory 342 are mainly four. As shown in the ninth and tenth embodiments, in another embodiment, the number of the memory slots 341 is preferably eight, and the number of the volatile memory 342 is preferably eight. And the bus bar 37 preferably has at least four contacts A, B, C, D. The four contacts A, B, C, and D are respectively connected to the upper and lower two sets of the memory slots 341, and the upper and lower two corresponding volatiles are respectively accessed through the two memory slots 341. Memory 342.
如第九圖與第十圖所示,當該控制器33存取該接點A上的其中一個揮發性記憶體342時,同樣會有電流流至其他七個該揮發性記憶體342,然而當訊號反射的現象發生時,該接點B上、下兩組揮發性記憶體342所反射的電流恰可互相抵消、該接點C上、下兩組揮發性記憶體342所反射的電流恰可互相抵消、而該接點D上、下兩組揮發性記憶體342所反射的電流恰可互相抵消。換句話說,絕大部分被反射的電流皆可被抵消掉,即使仍有電流流回該控制器33,但仍然只會有極微小、不會對訊號造成干擾的電流會流回該控制器33。因此,該控制器33所發出的控制指令,以及所存取的資料,不會受到雜訊的干擾而產生錯誤。As shown in the ninth and tenth diagrams, when the controller 33 accesses one of the volatile memories 342 on the contact A, current also flows to the other seven of the volatile memories 342, however When the phenomenon of signal reflection occurs, the currents reflected by the upper and lower two sets of volatile memory 342 of the contact B can cancel each other, and the current reflected by the upper and lower sets of volatile memory 342 of the contact C is just The currents reflected by the upper and lower sets of volatile memory 342 of the contact D can cancel each other out. In other words, most of the reflected current can be cancelled out, even if there is still current flowing back to the controller 33, but only a very small current that will not interfere with the signal will flow back to the controller. 33. Therefore, the control command issued by the controller 33 and the accessed data are not disturbed by noise and cause an error.
由上述說明可看出,通過本創作所揭露的記憶體連接架構,該些揮發性記憶體342不需具備內部終端電阻(On-Die Termination,ODT)的功能。而即使該些揮發性記憶體342內建有ODT的功能(例如DDR3即內建有ODT的功能),但其ODT功能不需要被啟用,該儲存裝置3同樣能夠克服訊號反射(reflection)的問題。如此一來,該儲存裝置3的功耗不會增加,因而可比同質性的儲存裝置(需通過ODT功能來克服訊號反射問題)來得省電。並且,因為該些揮發性記憶體342不具備ODT功能或未啟用ODT功能,故該儲存裝置3的溫度亦可比同質性的儲存裝置來得更低,因而使得該儲存裝置3的工作溫度能夠更為穩定。It can be seen from the above description that the volatile memory 342 does not need to have the function of On-Die Termination (ODT) by the memory connection architecture disclosed in the present invention. Even if the volatile memory 342 has built-in ODT function (for example, DDR3 has built-in ODT function), the ODT function does not need to be enabled, and the storage device 3 can also overcome the problem of signal reflection. . In this way, the power consumption of the storage device 3 does not increase, and thus the power can be saved compared with the homogeneous storage device (the ODT function is required to overcome the signal reflection problem). Moreover, since the volatile memory 342 does not have the ODT function or the ODT function is not enabled, the temperature of the storage device 3 can be lower than that of the homogenous storage device, thereby making the operating temperature of the storage device 3 more stable.
續請參閱第十一圖及第十二圖,分別為本創作的第三具體實施例的儲存裝置方塊圖及儲存裝置設置示意圖。本實施例中揭露了另一儲存裝置5,該儲存裝置5與上述第六圖中所示的該儲存裝置3的差異在於,除了第六圖中所示之元件外,該儲存裝置5可包括一第一傳輸介面51及至少一第二傳輸介面52,該儲存裝置5可通過該第一傳輸介面51來連接外部的該電腦主機板51,並可通過該第二傳輸介面52來連接一備份儲存裝置6。該第二傳輸介面52係設置於該電路基板31上,並通過該電路基板31電性連接該控制器33及該記憶體模組34,該備份儲存裝置6則通過該第二傳輸介面52與該控制器33、該記憶體模組34及該備份記憶體模組35電性連接。Continuing to refer to the eleventh and twelfth drawings, respectively, a block diagram of a storage device and a storage device arrangement diagram of a third embodiment of the present invention. Another storage device 5 is disclosed in this embodiment. The storage device 5 differs from the storage device 3 shown in the sixth figure in that, in addition to the components shown in the sixth figure, the storage device 5 may include The first transmission interface 51 and the at least one second transmission interface 52, the storage device 5 can be connected to the external computer motherboard 51 through the first transmission interface 51, and can be connected to the backup through the second transmission interface 52.

The backup storage device 6 passes through the second transmission interface 52. The controller 33, the memory module 34 and the backup memory module 35 are electrically connected.
本實施例中,該第二傳輸介面52主要係可為序列高技術配置(Serial Advance Technology Attachment,SATA)傳輸介面,該儲存裝置5通過該第二傳輸介面52連接一內部傳輸線61(例如可為一SATA傳輸線),並通過該內部傳輸線61電性連接該備份儲存裝置6。值得一提的是,該備份儲存裝置6中可包含至少一個硬碟(如磁頭讀取式硬碟或固態硬碟等)。該儲存裝置5通過該第二傳輸介面52連接該備份儲存裝置6,藉以可將該記憶體模組34內部的資料備份儲存至該備份儲存裝置6;再者,亦可將該備份記憶體模組35內部的資料複製到該備份儲存裝置6中。如此,可有效地提昇資料的備份空間。In this embodiment, the second transmission interface 52 is mainly a Serial Advance Technology Attachment (SATA) transmission interface, and the storage device 5 is connected to an internal transmission line 61 through the second transmission interface 52 (for example, A SATA transmission line) is electrically connected to the backup storage device 6 through the internal transmission line 61. It is worth mentioning that the backup storage device 6 can include at least one hard disk (such as a magnetic head read hard disk or a solid state hard disk, etc.). The storage device 5 is connected to the backup storage device 6 through the second transmission interface 52, so that the data stored in the memory module 34 can be backed up to the backup storage device 6. Alternatively, the backup memory can be configured. The data inside the group 35 is copied to the backup storage device 6. In this way, the backup space of the data can be effectively improved.
再者,該備份儲存裝置6還可由多個硬碟共同組成,而該第二傳輸介面52的數量可為二或二以上(如圖中以二個為例)。藉以,該儲存裝置5得藉由複數個該第二傳輸介面52,以獨立磁碟冗餘陣列(Redundant Array of Independent Disks,RAID)的方式,將該記憶體模組34內部的資料備份儲存至該備份儲存裝置6中的多個硬碟;再者,該儲存裝置5亦可以RAID的方式,將該備份記憶體模組35內部的資料複製到該備份儲存裝置6中。如此,可有效地提昇資料的備份速度。其中,該備份儲存裝置6中的硬碟數量,及該第二傳輸介面52的數量,係可依實際所需而設定,不應加以限定。Furthermore, the backup storage device 6 can also be composed of a plurality of hard disks, and the number of the second transmission interfaces 52 can be two or more (as exemplified by two in the figure). Therefore, the storage device 5 can back up the data in the memory module 34 by using a plurality of the second transmission interfaces 52 in a Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) manner. The plurality of hard disks in the backup storage device 6; in addition, the storage device 5 can also copy the data in the backup memory module 35 to the backup storage device 6 in a RAID manner.

The number of hard disks in the backup storage device 6 and the number of the second transmission interface 52 can be set according to actual needs, and should not be limited.
如此一來,當該記憶體模組34及/或該備份記憶體模組35損壞,或儲存空間不足時,即可通過該備份儲存裝置6來進行資料備份,並且還可通過RAID的方式來提升資料的備份速度。最後,再由該儲存裝置5視情況所需,通過該控制器33控制該備份儲存裝置6,以將內部的備份資料回存至該記憶體模組34或該備份記憶體模組35中。In this way, when the memory module 34 and/or the backup memory module 35 are damaged, or the storage space is insufficient, the backup storage device 6 can be used for data backup, and the RAID can also be used. Improve the backup speed of data. Finally, the storage device 5 controls the backup storage device 6 through the controller 33 to restore the internal backup data to the memory module 34 or the backup memory module 35.
值得一提的是,該備份儲存裝置6亦可設定為一獨立的硬碟,係單純通過該第一傳輸介面51及該第二傳輸介面52來與該電腦主機板41連接,以接收並傳輸資料。但此僅為本創作的另一實施例,不加以限定。It should be noted that the backup storage device 6 can also be configured as a separate hard disk, and is connected to the computer motherboard 41 through the first transmission interface 51 and the second transmission interface 52 to receive and transmit. data. However, this is only another embodiment of the present invention and is not limited thereto.
於前述之實施例中,該儲存裝置3主要係直接插置於該電腦主機板41的該PCI-E插槽42上,換言之,該儲存裝置3係內建於該電腦主機板41所屬的一電腦主機(例如第十二圖所示的電腦主機4)之中。然而如第十二圖所示,為了使用者在使用上的便利性,該儲存裝置3、5亦可以一外接式的型態來實現。於本實施例中,該第一傳輸介面51主要係可以一外部序列高技術配置(External Serial Advance Technology Attachment,e-SATA)傳輸介面或一通用序列匯流排3.0 (Universal Serial Bus3.0,USB3.0)傳輸介面來實現,但並不加以限定。如此一來,該儲存裝置3、5可通過該第一傳輸介面51來連接一外部傳輸線7(例如e-SATA傳輸線或USB傳輸線等),並通過該外部傳輸線7來連接與該電腦主機板41上的一對應連接埠43,藉以與該電腦主機4建立連接。In the foregoing embodiment, the storage device 3 is directly inserted into the PCI-E slot 42 of the computer motherboard 41.
