Content

Typically, when a packet is written to a particular location within a solid-state storage element 216, 218, 220, wherein the packet is intended to be written to a location within a particular page which is specific to a of a particular erase block of a particular element of a particular bank, a physical address is sent on the storage I/O bus 210 and followed by the packet. The physical address contains enough information for the solid-state storage element 216, 218, 220 to direct the packet to the designated location within the page. Since all storage elements in a row of storage elements (e.g. SSS 0.0-SSS 0.N 216a, 218a, 220a) are accessed simultaneously by the appropriate bus within the storage I/O bus 210a.a, to reach the proper page and to avoid writing the data packet to similarly addressed pages in the row of storage elements (SSS 0.0-SSS 0.N 216a, 218a, 220a), the bank 214a that includes the solid-state storage element SSS 0.0 216a with the correct page where the data packet is to be written is simultaneously selected by the storage control bus 212.
