STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING BATTERY MODULE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18135141 titled 'STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING BATTERY MODULE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a storage system that includes a host, a back plane, a plurality of storage sets, and a battery module.

  • The storage system is designed to handle power drops and ensure data integrity.
  • The host is connected to the back plane, which includes a switching block.
  • The storage sets are connected to the back plane and receive power from the host.
  • The battery module is also connected to the back plane and supplies spare power to storage sets when abnormal power drops are detected.
  • The battery module controls the storage sets to perform a data flushing operation when the power in a storage set drops below a threshold value after supplying spare power.


Original Abstract Submitted

A storage system includes a host, a back plane including a switching block and connected to the host, a plurality of storage sets connected to the back plane to receive power from the host, and a battery module connected to the back plane to supply spare power to at least one storage set of the plurality of storage sets through the switching block, when an abnormal power drop is detected in the at least one storage set of the plurality of storage sets. The battery module controls the at least one storage set to perform a data flushing operation, when power less than or equal to a threshold value is detected in the at least one storage set after supplying the spare power.
