An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for aberration compensation. In one embodiment, a first compensation lens used in conjunction with a second compensation lens to produce a conical beam used to read from, or write to, an optical medium. An Nth order compensation equation is used to optimize aberration errors associated with accessing the optical medium. The present invention may include a displaceable focus lens positioned relative to an optical medium. The focus lens may be displaced when the conical beam's focal length is adjusted. A displacement equation is presented to determine the preferred placement of the focus lens. By compensating for aberration, read/write errors may be reduced while accessing optical media thus increasing system robustness and facilitating the use of additional layers on optical media.

A method and apparatus to identity SPAM emails is disclosed. The method sets a misspelling rejection ratio. Upon receipt of an email comprising (X) words, the method determines the number (Y) of misspelled words comprising that email. The method then calculates a misspelling ratio by dividing (Y) by (X), and then determines if the misspelling ratio is greater than or equal to the misspelling rejection ratio. If the method determines that the misspelling ratio is greater than or equal to the misspelling rejection ratio, then the method reports the email as SPAM. In certain embodiments, the detection of words used to trigger the rejection of SPAM is based on a fuzzy search of alternate spellings. These alternate spellings may come from a spell checker.

Disclosed are a system, an apparatus, a method and an article of manufacture to provide for writing WORM (write once read many) data to a data storage device. A WORM pointer memory is used for maintaining an inventory of LBAs (logical block addresses) where WORM data may be written on the data storage media of the data storage device. The WORM pointer memory is a tamper proof memory device to maintain data integrity with respect to WORM data.
摘要:
A method to write information to a designated information storage medium using an allocated data storage device using a specified information recording format, whereby a previously-determined media bit for the designated information storage medium is examined, and a previously-determined device bit for the allocated data storage device is examined, and the write capability of the designated information storage medium using the specified information recording format is determined and displayed. Management classes embedded in the file name may augment the media bit and device bit for determining the write capability.

A method for deduplicating and managing data blocks within a file system includes adding a deduplication identifier to each pointer pointing to a data block to indicate whether the data block is deduplicated, detecting duplicate data blocks, determining whether one of the duplicate data blocks has been deduplicated, when detected, determining that one duplicate data block is a master copy when it is determined that one duplicate data block has been deduplicated, selecting one of the duplicate data blocks to be a master copy when it is determined that the duplicate data blocks have not been deduplicated, and setting the deduplication identifier of the selected duplicate data block to indicate deduplication, and determining that the other duplicate data block is a new duplicate data block and setting the deduplication identifier of the other duplicate data block to indicate deduplication and directing the respective pointer to the master copy.

A magnetic storage media includes a magnetic south-north servo band section and a magnetic north-south servo band section. The magnetic south-north servo band section includes a magnetic south-pole polarity initialized servo track segment and a magnetic north-pole polarity servo pattern recorded on the magnetic south-pole polarity initialized servo track segment. The magnetic north-south servo band section includes a magnetic north-pole polarity initialized servo track segment, and a magnetic south-pole polarity servo pattern recorded on the magnetic north-pole polarity initialized servo track segment. The magnetic south-north servo band section and the magnetic north-south servo band section are recorded relative to each other on a servo track to represent magnetic polarity encoded servo position information based on the magnetic north-pole polarity servo pattern and the magnetic south-pole polarity servo pattern.

A magnetic storage media includes a magnetic first-pole polarity initialized servo track segment and a magnetic second-pole polarity differential timing based servo pattern recorded on the magnetic first-pole polarity initialized servo track segment. The magnetic second-pole polarity differential timing based servo pattern represents magnetic encoded servo position information for facilitating a determination of a servo position error signal exclusive of noise.

Improved reliability for multi-layer media is providing by the present invention. A data stream U is received for recording to a multi-layer rotating storage medium, the data stream U comprising a sequence of data bits. Each data bit U(J) is encoded into X representation bits. A first representation bit B(1,J) is recorded onto a first layer of the storage media, the second representation bit B(2,J) is recorded onto a second layer of the storage media, etc. When a request to read the recorded data U from the storage media is subsequently received, a plurality of the X representation bits are read back from the storage media and are decoded into the original data bit U(J). In one embodiment, encoding may be performed with a convolution encoding algorithm and decoding with a PRML decoding algorithm. In another embodiment, Reed Solomon encoding/decoding may be employed.

A magnetic storage media includes one or more magnetic polarity encoded servo bands with each magnetic polarity encoded servo band including one or more magnetic south-north servo band sections and one or more magnetic north-south servo band sections. Each magnetic south-north servo band section includes a magnetic south-pole polarity initialized servo track segment and a magnetic north-pole polarity servo pattern recorded on the magnetic south-pole polarity initialized servo track segment. Each magnetic north-south servo band section includes a magnetic north-pole polarity initialized servo track segment, and a magnetic south-pole polarity servo pattern recorded on the magnetic north-pole polarity initialized servo track segment. The magnetic south-north servo band section(s) and the magnetic north-south servo band section(s) are recorded relative to each other on a servo track to represent magnetic polarity encoded servo position information based on the magnetic north-pole polarity servo pattern(s) and the magnetic south-pole polarity servo pattern(s).

A medium, system, and method are disclosed for a common data storage medium depression depth. An optical data storage medium comprises a plurality of spacer layers and data surfaces. A wavelength for a radiation beam such as the emission of a laser diode is identified. The index of refraction for a first spacer layer or substrate is also identified. The substrate is configured to transmit the radiation beam. The index of refraction of a second spacer layer that is configured to transmit the radiation beam is also identified. A depression depth for a plurality of pits for ROM media, or sector headers for recordable media, or grooves for recordable media on each data surface is substantially equal to the radiation beam wavelength divided by four times the average of the indexes of refraction of each spacer layer. In one embodiment, the average is an arithmetic mean of the indexes of refraction. In an alternate embodiment, the average is a harmonic mean of the indexes of refraction. The average may also be a geometric mean of indexes of refraction.
