Original Abstract Submitted
A storage adapter includes a carrier and a storage device. The storage device stores data and includes a buffer memory including a volatile memory, a nonvolatile memory, a memory controller that controls the buffer memory and the nonvolatile memory, and a mode signal generating circuit that generates a mode signal, based on a connection state of the storage device and the carrier. The carrier removably receives the storage device, and based on a level of the mode signal, the memory controller selectively performs a data dump operation such that the data stored in the buffer memory are stored in the nonvolatile memory.
