US Patent 12019917 Peer RAID control among peer data storage devices

Example storage systems, data storage devices, and methods provide redundant array of independent disk (RAID) control among peer storage devices. A master storage device among peer storage devices receives host commands and determines, based on a peer RAID configuration, data blocks for redundantly storing the host data unit among the peer storage devices. The master storage device allocates the data blocks among the peer storage devices and sends them to the peer storage devices using a peer communication channel.
