20120060009DYNAMIC BACK-UP STORAGE SYSTEM WITH RAPID RESTORE AND METHOD OF OPERATION THEREOF - A method for operating a dynamic back-up storage system includes: providing a high speed memory including a first rank memory device and subsequent ranks of memory devices; providing a non-volatile memory for saving data from the high speed memory; and providing a control logic unit for controlling access, of a central processing unit that executes a program, from the high speed memory including restoring the subsequent ranks of memory devices while the central processing unit is executing the program from the first rank memory device.03-08-2012
20110125966MULTI-RANK MEMORY MODULE THAT EMULATES A MEMORY MODULE HAVING A DIFFERENT NUMBER OF RANKS - A transparent four rank memory module has a front side and a back side. The front side has a third memory rank stacked on a first memory rank. The back side has a fourth memory rank stacked on a second memory rank. An emulator coupled to the memory module activates and controls one individual memory rank from either the first memory rank, the second memory rank, the third memory rank, or the fourth memory rank based on the signals received from a memory controller.05-26-2011
