    Abstract: Described is a technique for transferring data from a data storage system to a connected host data processing system. The subsystem comprises a device controller connected to one or more direct access storage devices e.g. disk drives. The system issues data transfer commands to the subsystem to iniciate transfer of data between system and device(s). Read/write data is transferred directly from device to host via a buffer in the controller. For a read operation, the read command specifies the data to be transferred and the start address in host memory to which it should be sent. The device controller is capable of amending the start address to which it actually sends the data. This provides a performance benefit for split data transfers. In addition, if an error occurs during a read operation, the controller can specify the host address to which the replacement data should be sent.

    Abstract: A high performance data storage subsystem is described which is suitable for connection to a data processing system. The main functional units of the subsystem are (i) host adapter, (ii) device controller and (iii) direct access storage device (DASD). The functional units are interconnected by dedicated, point to point, full duplex serial links over which commands and data are trasmitted in the form of packets. The serial links also support packet multiplexing which allows commands transmitted over the serial link to be multiplexed with read or write data being transferred from and to the devices. A basic configuration of the subsystem comprises an adapter connected via a serial link to a controller which is in turn connected by four serial links to four DASDs. However the subsystem architecture described allows each adapter to be connected to up to four controllers, thus allowing a maximum of sixteen devices to be attached to one adapter.
