Abstract
A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and device that assists with sharing non-volatile memory solid state drives across a cluster group includes receiving a request for a block of storage in a non-volatile memory solid state drive in one of the plurality of non-volatile memory disk shelves. Information associated with each of a plurality of solid state drives in the plurality of non-volatile memory disk shelves associated with the received request is obtained. A namespace for each of the plurality of solid state drives in the plurality of non-volatile memory disk shelves using the obtained information is created. The requested block of storage in the non-volatile memory solid state drive associated with one of the created namespace is assigned to the requesting client computing device.
