Abstract
A storage system includes N horizontal backplanes and a first mirror backplane. Each horizontal backplane includes a first controller and a second controller on a same plane. The N first controllers and the N second controllers of the storage system form a first column and a second column in a vertical direction. The first mirror backplane is perpendicular to the horizontal backplanes, a first side of the first mirror backplane is connected to the horizontal backplanes, and a second side is connected to the controllers. A second side of the first controller has N second mirror ports and N second heartbeat ports, and a first side of the second controller has N first mirror ports and N first heartbeat ports. Wiring on the first mirror backplane includes wiring that interconnects the first mirror port of the second controller to the second mirror port of the first controller.
