Abstract
A solid-state drive configured to store persistent digitally encoded data may operate in an initiator mode. When operating in the initiator mode, the solid-state drive may initiate the generation and issuance of a command or a request for another solid-state drive to carry out a data storage related procedure. The command or request generated by the solid-state drive may be communicated directly to another solid-state drive without the communications passing through an intermediate device, such as a host processor.
