Abstract: A storage device that is detachably attachable to an information processing apparatus, comprises an IC chip; a first control unit extracting a control command for the IC chip included in a control command for the storage device from the information processing apparatus; and a second control unit performing interface conversion corresponding to the IC chip on the control command for the IC chip extracted by the first control unit and giving the converted control command to the IC chip.

Abstract: The ATM switch includes a switch network section, a common section and an individual interface section. The ATM switch system can reduce a cost by sharing the common section in both cases of employing a simplex and a duplex individual interface sections. The common section includes a demultiplexer, a user cell discarding section, a header convertor, a multiplexer, an individual interface section information receiver, and a controller. The individual information receiver identifies whether the individual interface section has a simplex or a duplex structure according to information sent from the individual interface section. The controller sets the condition of demultiplexing the cells in the demultiplexer, and sets the condition of discarding the user cells in the user cell discarding section.
