A data transfer interface system is provided that directly transfers data from one data storage drive to another data storage drive under the control of a host. The host and data storage drives are jointly connected to one another with data lines and control lines. Each data storage drive is connected separately to the host with a read/write command line. The host initializes the data storage drives providing initialization data to the drives where the data may include position information and commend information. After initialization, the host concurrently instructs one data storage drive to read the data from the drive while the other data storage drive writes the data to memory.

Data transfer interface for a direct transfer of data from a first device to a second device

A data transfer interface is provided which enables a plurality of data processing devices to access a single data storage drive. The data processing device includes a switch connected to the plurality of data processing devices and the data storage drive. A control device drives the switch so that only one of the data processing devices accesses the data storage drive at a time.
