Abstract
Disclosed is a storage test apparatus having a storage protocol matching device including an integrated protocol software unit and an integrated protocol hardware unit, in which, when an insertion of a storage is detected, a protocol configuration that matches a protocol of the storage is automatically set through a protocol switching, thereby enhancing the test efficiency.
Claims6
A storage protocol matching device comprising:
- a control unit configured to provide a command signal for protocol matching;
- an integrated protocol software unit connected to the control unit and including a plurality of mutually different pieces of protocol software;
- an integrated protocol hardware unit connected to the integrated protocol software unit and including a plurality of mutually different pieces of protocol hardware corresponding to the plurality of mutually different pieces of protocol software;
- a connector serving as an interface for transmitting and receiving a test signal of a storage device, and provided with a detection pin for detecting an insertion of the storage device;
- and
- a switch unit configured to perform a protocol switching,
- wherein the control unit controls the switch unit to sequentially switch the plurality of mutually different pieces of protocol software and the plurality of mutually different pieces of protocol hardware in response to detecting the insertion of the storage device until the switched protocol software and the switched protocol hardware match a protocol of the storage device.
