Abstract: A peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) storage system includes N storage devices. Each storage device includes at least one processor, a switch, and at least one storage unit. The switch includes at least two uplink ports and at least two downlink ports. The at least two uplink ports include at least one first uplink port and a second uplink port, and each processor is coupled to the at least one first uplink port. The at least two downlink ports include at least one first downlink port and a second downlink port, and the at least one storage unit is coupled to the at least one first downlink port. A second downlink port of an ith storage device is coupled to a second uplink port of an (i+1)th storage device. A second downlink port of an Nth storage device is coupled to a second uplink port of a first storage device.
