Abstract
A software Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID)/management trusted storage-device-based communication system includes a chassis housing a software Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID) subsystem, a storage device that is coupled to the software RAID subsystem and that includes a storage device memory subsystem, and a management subsystem that is coupled to the storage device. The management subsystem authenticates the storage device to establish management subsystem/storage device trust between the management subsystem and the storage device and, in response, uses the storage device to establish management subsystem/software RAID subsystem trust between the management subsystem and the software RAID subsystem. In response to establishing the management subsystem/storage device trust and the management subsystem/software RAID subsystem trust, the management subsystem transmits communications with the software RAID subsystem via the storage device memory subsystem in the storage device.
