FIG. 6 is a schematic flow chart diagram illustrating another embodiment of a method 600 for managing data in a solid-state storage device 102 using a data pipeline in accordance with the present invention. The method 600 begins 602 and the input buffer 306 receives 604 one or more data or metadata segments to be written to the solid-state storage 110. The packetizer 302 adds a header to each packet which typically includes the length of the packet within the object. The packetizer 302 receives 604 the one or more segments that were stored in the input buffer 306 and packetizes 606 the one or more segments by creating one or more packets sized for the solid-state storage 110 where each packet includes a header and data from the one or more segments.
