Abstract
Systems and methods for data migration via a peer communication channel between data storage devices are disclosed. The data storage devices include a host interface configured to connect to at least one host system and a peer interface to connect to the peer communication channel, where the host interface and the peer interface and separate physical interfaces. A source data storage device establishes peer communication with a destination data storage device over the peer communication channel, determines a set of host data, and sends the set of host data to the destination data storage device, while continuing to receive and process host storage operations through the host interface.
