Abstract
Non-volatile memory based computer systems and methods are described. According to one aspect of the invention, at least one non-volatile memory module is coupled to a computer system as main storage. The non-volatile memory module is controlled by a northbridge controller configured to control the non-volatile memory as main memory. The page size of the at least one non-volatile memory module is configured to be the size of one of the cache lines associated with a microprocessor of the computer system. According to another aspect, at least one non-volatile memory module is coupled to a computer system as data read/write buffer of one or more hard disk drives. The non-volatile memory module is controlled by a southbridge controller configured to control the non-volatile memory as an input/out device. The page size of the at least one non-volatile memory module is configured in proportion to characteristics of the hard disk drives.
