Abstract
One feature pertains to an advanced computer device configured for storing data on a plurality of non-volatile memory mass storage devices. The mass storage devices may interface with the computer device through a plurality of base boards mounted in an enclosure that are configured to couple with at least one non-volatile memory storage drive. Each base board may further be configured to couple with a high speed interconnect cable to exchange data to be loaded or stored with the computer device. According to one aspect, the high speed cable transfers Serially Attached SCSI (SAS) or PCIe data packets or frames.
