Embodiments of application provide a node interconnection apparatus, and a method implemented by the node interconnection apparatus. The node interconnection apparatus includes a computing node and a resource control node, and a device interconnection interface connecting the two. Each of the computing node and the resource control node includes a processing unit and a storage unit, and the resource control node further includes a resource interface for connecting with a network storage device. The resource control node manages storage resource of the network storage device, and when the computing node needs started up, the resource control node obtains operating system startup information from the network storage device and provide the information to the computing node. The computing node can start up without the need for storing startup information locally. Therefore, storage resource inside the computing node is saved.

A data storage system can be vigilant of the acoustic impedance between cooling features and a data storage device to prevent operational degradation in the data storage device as a result of cooling operations from the cooling features. One or more cooling feature may each be positioned on an opposite sides of an air plenum from a data storage device with each cooling feature connected to a cooling module configured to adjust a speed of the first cooling feature in response to a detected operational condition in the data storage device. The cooling features speed adjustment is executed independently to correct an acoustic and vibration disturbance interference in the data storage system.

A system having information equipment connected in a daisy chain, where power supply control of the daisy chain-connected information equipment is performed without having to add a dedicated power supply control device. In a daisy chain connection system, second information equipment comprise a control unit and a power supply unit, and a first information equipment and the control unit of the second information equipment include a communication circuit capable of wired communication, and the first information equipment and the power supply unit of the second information equipment include a wireless circuit capable of wireless communication. When turning OFF a power supply to any one of the second information equipment, the first information equipment requests the power supply unit to stop the power supply by using wireless communication, and the power supply unit performs control for stopping the power supply to the control unit according to the request.

Techniques for managing power usage in a memory subsystem are described. An operation type of each of a plurality of operations queued against one or more of a plurality of memory components is obtained. It is determined that at least two of the plurality of operations can be performed in parallel and that a first configuration of the plurality of memory components does not allow the at least two operations to be performed in parallel, the first configuration including a first set of power management cohorts. An interconnection of the plurality of memory components is reconfigured to change from the first configuration to a second configuration of the of the plurality of memory components, the second configuration including a second set of power management cohorts that allow the at least two operations to be performed in parallel.

An electronic device includes: a power supply to supply a first power and a second power; a first solid state drive (SSD) backplane and a second SSD backplane to receive the first power from the power supply, each of the first solid state drive (SSD) backplane and the second SSD backplane including two or more SSDs; and a baseboard to receive the second power from the power supply, to independently power on and power off the first SSD backplane and the second SSD backplane, and to access the SSDs of an SSD backplane that is in a power-on state from among the first SSD backplane and the second SSD backplane. In response to an increase in temperature of an SSD backplane that is in a power-off state, at least one SSD of the SSD backplane that is in the power-off state may be powered on.
