Abstract: A method and a system for reserving a device for a system are provided herein. The method includes accessing a reserved device, where a basic input/output system (BIOS) uses the reserved device. The method includes initializing a register, via the BIOS firmware, to disable a port that connects to the reserved device. The method includes disabling the port that connects to the reserved device. The disabling may occur before the BIOS firmware transfers control of the system to an operating system. The disabling may hide the reserved device from the operating system and reserve the reserved device for the BIOS firmware without interference from the operating system.

Abstract: Examples disclosed herein relate to using a programmable logic device to perform a recovery operation on non-volatile storage devices. In response to receiving an indication to perform recovery, multiple storage devices are set to a predetermined value by the PLD. Recovery of the storage devices is to begin based on the predetermined value setting.

Abstract: An example hard disk drive includes a multiplexer. The multiplexer is coupled to a communication interface, a hard disk drive controller, and a storage device. The multiplexer is to, in response to a detection of a first selection command via a first set of pins of the communication interface, route first firmware data from a second set of pins of the communication interface to the storage device during a first flashing operation. The hard disk drive controller is bypassed during the routing of the first firmware data. The multiplexer is also to, in response to a detection of a second selection command via the first set of pins, route second firmware data from the hard disk drive controller to the storage device during a second flashing operation. The second firmware data is received via the third set of pins.
