A module identifier and a request address associated with an access request are received at a host memory buffer (HMB) access module in a solid-state drive (SSD) system. A translated address is determined based at least in part on the module identifier and the request address, including by accessing at least one translation table that stores address mappings between (1) a plurality of processors in the SSD system and (2) a host memory buffer; each processor in the plurality of processors has a non-overlapping memory space in the host memory buffer. The access request is performed at a host interface, including by accessing the host memory buffer using the translated address, wherein the host memory buffer is located in host memory that is external to the SSD system.
