Abstract: The invention is related to an apparatus and a method for driving redundant array of independent disks (RAID) engine. The method, performed by a RAID controller in a RAID pre-processor, including: completing a driving operation for performing a series of physical-layer signal interactions with a RAID engine according to a driving value in the configuration register. The driving value corresponds to a command issued by a processing unit. The processing unit performs an operation irrelevant from an encoding or a decoding of a parity of a page group in parallel of the driving operation by the RAID controller in coordination with the RAID engine.
