Abstract

A solid-state drive architecture and arrangement for standardized disk drive form factors, PCI type memory cards and general motherboard memory. The solid-state drive architecture is modular in that a main printed circuit board (PCB) of the memory system includes a host interface connector, a memory controller, and connectors. Each connector can removably receive a memory blade, where each memory blade includes a plurality of memory devices serially connected to each other via a serial interface. Each memory blade includes a physical serial interface for providing data and control signals to a first memory device in the serial chain and for receiving data and control signals from a last memory device in the serial chain. Each memory blade can be sized in length and width to accommodate any number of memory devices on either side thereof.
