A parallel data storage device includes a data storage medium having a first cluster and a second cluster. The first cluster includes a first patch and the second cluster includes a second patch. The parallel data storage device also includes a first reader for reading the first patch of the first cluster and a second reader for reading the second patch of the second cluster. A first multiplexer is used for addressing the first cluster while a second multiplexer is used for addressing the second cluster. The first and second readers are arranged in a single column such that the first reader is electrically connected to the first multiplexer and the second reader is electrically connected to the second multiplexer.

Parallel data storage device

A highly parallel data storage chip device providing a plurality of parallel data tracks allocated into separate physical groups upon a data storage medium. A controller establishes logical groups of data tracks located in different physical groups. A servo track provides tracking information for a plurality of read/write devices that move relative to the length of each data track, thereby permitting parallel data transfer between the read/write devices and the distributed data tracks of the logical group.

Highly parallel data storage chip device

A system-on-a-chip is described herein. The system-on-a-chip includes a microprocessor, a non-volatile imperfect semiconductor memory device and a memory controller. The memory controller is configured to transfer device data between the microprocessor and the non-volatile semiconductor imperfect memory device.

System on a chip having a non-volatile imperfect memory

A memory card comprising a first modular component that comprises a first host interface and a first host interface module and a device interface module configured to operate a device interface that is coupled to a storage device. The first host interface module is configured to call a function in the device interface module. The first modular component is replaceable with a second modular component that comprises a second host interface and a second host interface module, and the second host interface module is configured to call the function in the device interface module.

Memory card having first modular component with host interface wherein the first modular is replaceable with a second modular component having second host interface

Data storage systems and methods for writing data into a memory component and reading data from the memory component are disclosed. By utilizing a high-speed data controller, the systems and methods transfer data at a fast data transfer rate. In one implementation, the memory component comprises a memory controller for managing data within the memory component. The memory controller comprises the high-speed data controller and a data manager. The data manager comprises a compression/decompression engine that compresses and decompresses data and a storage device interface.
