Abstract: Host interface devices are provided. A host interface device includes a first pin connected to a first node and a second pin connected to a second node. The host interface device includes a switch connected between the second node and a first voltage terminal, and configured to provide a voltage from the first voltage terminal to the second pin in response to a voltage level of the first node. The host interface device includes a pull-up resistor connected between the first node and a second voltage terminal. Moreover, the host interface device is configured to receive a memory detection signal from a storage device via the first pin when the first pin is electrically connected to the storage device.

Abstract: A storage device and a method for indicating a state of a storage device are provided. The storage device may include nonvolatile memory devices, a controller that controls the nonvolatile memory devices, a display device, and a display controller that controls the display device. The display controller may control the display device to display different colors respectively corresponding to states of the storage device. The states may include an access state in which the controller accesses the nonvolatile memory devices according to a request from an external host device, a standby state in which the controller is ready to perform the request from the external host device, a device fail state in which the controller and the nonvolatile memory devices cannot operate, and a replacement state in which the controller and the nonvolatile memory devices are selected for replacement.

Abstract: A storage device includes nonvolatile memory devices, a connector that includes connection terminals, and a controller that communicates with an external host device through the connector and to control the nonvolatile memory devices. The connector provides the external host device with detection information in response to the connector being connected with the external host device. Power is supplied from the external host device to the controller and the nonvolatile memory devices through the connector in response to the providing of the detection information. The connector provides the external host device with information of a communication type in which the controller communicates with the external host device, after the power is supplied. The communication type is one of a first communication type and a second communication type. The controller configures the connection terminals to correspond to a single or dual port based on a signal received from the external host device.
