Abstract: In an embodiment of the invention, a method is presented to operationally integrate one or more RAID control mechanisms into a flash electronic disk controller. The method includes incorporating one or more RAID features into a flash electronic disk by adding one or more RAID components in a flash controller, wherein the flash electronic disk includes a RAID control module to control the one or more RAID components; receiving a read or write operation command at a flash controller from a host; translating the read or write operation command into a command format understood by one or more flash controllers; translating the command format into an instruction format understood by one or more flash memory devices; and accessing one or more memory locations in the one or more flash memory devices according to the instruction format to perform a read or write operation for the host.
