摘要： A shrouded hard disk drive includes one or more contamination filter cavities embedded within the shroud for capturing airborne contaminants circulated within the drive during normal operation. The present invention takes advantage of naturally occurring radial and circumferential velocity differences between air at the edges of the disk pack and the air at the filter cavity entrance opening (i.e., the inner circumference of the shroud) to redirect airflow through a filter positioned within the one or more filter cavities. After air passes through the filter, it exits through a filter cavity exit opening positioned in proximity to either in the area between the disks, or the area above or below the disk pack. In order to trap particles entrained in the airflow, the filter can be made of a variety of materials, including: air porous plastic film, expanded polyvinyl chloride plastic, a micro porous polymer of cellulose ester formed around a polyester web, a lint-free weave, an adsorbent, an electret, or an electrically conductive material.

摘要： A disk drive has on-board soft error recovery procedures for recovering data following a soft error, and the capability to selectively disable or limit this feature. Preferably, a set of data storage devices are used to store heterogeneous data, i.e., to store some alphanumeric data, and some multimedia data. If a disk drive is selected for storage of multimedia data, the soft error recovery is disabled, and soft errors are simply transmitted to the host system as data. If each disk surface may be independently allocated to data of different types, soft error recovery may be independently disabled for each disk surface.

摘要： Mobile client based wireless communication is enhanced by using geographical position information of a respective mobile client relative to one or more communication dead zones. When a mobile client is approaching a dead zone, data communications can be delayed until the dead zone is traversed, or given a higher priority to expedite transmission completion before dead zone entry. A mobile client communicates its position information to the base station, where this position information can be compared with the locations of respective dead zones. The base station can determine and communicate to a mobile unit, an estimated time before the mobile unit will enter a dead zone. The mobile unit can use this information to determine whether sufficient time remains before entering the dead zone to transmit one or more blocks of data, for instance.
摘要翻译：通过使用相对于一个或多个通信死区的相应移动客户端的地理位置信息来增强基于移动客户端的无线通信。当移动客户端正在接近死区时，可以延迟数据通信直到死区被遍历，或者给予更高的优先级，以在死区进入之前加速传输完成。移动客户端将其位置信息传达到基站，其中该位置信息可以与各个死区的位置进行比较。基站可以在移动单元进入死区之前的估计时间内确定和通信到移动单元。移动单元可以使用该信息来确定例如在进入死区之前是否有足够的时间来传送一个或多个数据块。

摘要： A system and method for operating a motor vehicle based data processing system having at least one rotating magnetic disk drive data storage device are disclosed. Sequential presentation data stored on a rotating magnetic disk drive installed in a motor vehicle or automobile is buffered and the context is saved in sufficient amount to transcend a time interval of data unavailability when a disk drive is initially powered up. When the vehicle is shut off and the drive is powered down, the data to be presented in the immediate future is saved in a non-volatile buffer. The amount of data saved in the buffer is sufficient to span the time interval that it takes the disk drive to power up and become data accessible. Preferably, the buffer is a general purpose buffer for use by the vehicle's on-board computer system, the amount of memory allocated to the buffer varying with the present state of the vehicle and disk drive, and other parameters. The disk drive may be used, among other things, for storing and retrieving multimedia data such as digitized music and/or video.

摘要： The internal temperature of a small, temperature-sensitive device, such as a microdrive, can be controlled using a thermoelectric unit to permit the temperature-sensitive device to be used in a wider range of installations. In particular, a thermoelectric unit is provided at the housing of the temperature-sensitive device. A Peltier thermoelectric module is advantageously used to thereby provide an environmental shell that operates in either a heating or a cooling mode.

摘要： A method and apparatus are provided for preemptive head crash avoidance in a direct access storage device (DASD). At least two actuators are provided in the DASD. Each actuator services at least one transducer head. Monitoring for a predicted head crash is performed. Responsive to an identified predicted head crash, a transducer head for the predicted head crash is unloaded and unloading each additional transducer head being serviced by an actuator for the transducer head for the predicted head crash. A data backup process is performed. Responsive to an identified predicted head crash, data are transferred from a disk surface associated with the transducer head for the predicted head crash and transferring data from each disk surface associated with each additional transducer head being serviced by the actuator for the transducer head for the predicted head crash.

摘要： Input signals are electronically watermarked using an uneven or non-uniform sampling rate. The uneven or non-uniform sampling may be pseudo-random. The uneven or non-uniform sampling meets the Nyquist criterion so that aliasing and loss of content are avoided. The resulting sampling pattern in the sampled data is detectable by a comparison with the original source data.

摘要： A method of predicting failures of data storage devices in a data storage network. In predicting failures, birth and/or health records of data storage devices in the data storage network are requested. The records are then scaled and thresholded and processed using a probabilistic neural network to classify the data storage devices. Based on the classification, an action is taken to improve the reliability and availability of the data storage network.
