ABSTRACT
A
plurality
of
?ash
(solid
state)
media
coupled
to
a
single
form
factor
connector
to
provide
a
module,
i.e.,
referred
to
as
a
SmartStack
module,
that
can
be
coupled
directly
to
a
device
With
a
SmartStack
module
controller.
The
SmartStack
mod
ule
does
not
include
a
controller
and
is
controlled
from
the
host
side.
The
form
factor
connector
Would
typically
be
a
CompactFlash
(CF)
form
factor
or
some
other
form
factor
used
in
a
variety
of
devices.
The
SmartStack
memory
module
in
a
preferred
embodiment
includes
a
Write
protect
sWitch
that
prevents
certain
portions
of
the
memory
Within
the
Smart
Stack
module
from
being
Written
to.
In
addition,
a
portion
of
the
?ash
memory
Will
be
allocated
to
the
secure
area
for
storing
information
to
implement
various
forms of
security.
Another
portion
of
the
?ash
memory
is
allocated
to
store
optional
biometric
information
such
as
a
user’s
?ngerprint
or
retinal
scan
information,
etc.
In
a
preferred
embodiment,
the
SmartStack
module
is
a
?ash
memory
card
in
a
CF
Type
I
or
II
format;
hoWever,
the
card
Will
not
be
compatible With
standard
CF
readers,
but
Will
be
compatible
With
SmartStack
readers.
Larger
memory
sizes
Will
be
available
as
larger
?ash
memory
chips
become
available.
