A modular input-output subsystem for a supercomputer is disclosed. Peripheral devices are coupled to the system through channel adaptor interfaces, while communication with the CPU is through high speed data channels. A memory buffer is provided to buffer data transfers between the peripherals and the Central Processing Units (CPUs) and the Solid State Storage Devices (SSDs).
