Zusammenfassung:A system includes multiple memories. Access of at least one of the multiple memories uses an interface subsystem that includes a memory controller and a distinct media controller, the memory controller to issue a transaction-level access request. The media controller is associated with at least one memory and produces, in response to the transaction-level access request, at least one command according to a specification of the at least one memory. Data is migrated from a first of the multiple memories to a second of the multiple memories, without the data traversing through a cache memory in the processor during the migrating.
