An embodiment of a system for implementing parallel usage of a plurality of non-volatile input/output (I/O) devices can include an interface configured to receive, from a source, a source request and a first memory coupled to the interface. The first memory can be configured to store a data unit specified by the source request. The system can include an I/O device controller coupled to the interface. The I/O device controller can be configured to correlate the source request with a plurality of I/O device requests and initiate sending of the plurality of I/O device requests to the plurality of non-volatile I/O devices in parallel. The system also can include a decoder coupled to the first memory and the I/O device controller. The decoder can be configured to receive data from the plurality of non-volatile I/O devices in parallel.
