摘要:
System and method for high speed data storage. An unmounted unformatted direct access storage device (DASD) may be opened via an operation system (OS) application programming interface (API). A maximum amount of storage space afforded by the DASD may be determined, and the DASD locked, thereby limiting write access to the DASD to a first application process and excluding writes to the DASD by any other application process. A single data type data stream is received, and stored on the DASD in linear fashion as it is received without using a file system architecture, metadata, indices, or keys associated with the data, including writing a block of the stream of data to the DASD and returning a next contiguous write location on the DASD in an iterative manner. The stored data are readable by multiple readers in a linear manner without using the file system architecture, metadata, indices, or keys.

A processor-implemented method for copying a source file to a destination file using a virtual memory manager (VMM) of a computer operating system is provided. The method includes receiving, by the VMM, a request to copy the source file to a destination file. The method further provides that based on the status of the virtual page, performing at least one of moving the virtual page to the destination file, copying the virtual page to the destination file, reading the virtual page into memory, and ignoring the virtual page.

In one embodiment, a data storage system includes a write channel for writing data to a storage medium, the write channel configured to utilize a partial reverse concatenated modulation code. The write channel includes logic adapted for encoding data sets using a C2 encoding scheme, logic adapted for adding a header to each subunit of the data sets, logic adapted for encoding the headers of the data sets with a first modulation encoding scheme, logic adapted for encoding data portions of the data sets with a second modulation encoding scheme, logic adapted for encoding portions of the one or more C2-encoded data sets using a C1 encoding scheme, logic adapted for combining the C1-encoded portions with the modulation-encoded headers of the C2-encoded data sets using a multiplexer, and logic adapted for writing the one or more combined C1 - and C2-encoded data sets to data tracks.

In one embodiment of the invention, a memory apparatus is disclosed. The memory apparatus includes a memory array, a block read/write controller, and a random access read memory controller. The memory array is block read/write accessible and random read accessible. The block read/write controller is coupled between the memory array and an external interconnect. The block read/write controller performs block read/write operations upon the memory array to access blocks of consecutive memory locations therein. The random access read memory controller is coupled between the memory array and the external interconnect in parallel with the block read/write access controller. The random access read memory controller performs random read memory operations upon the memory array to access random memory locations therein.

A data storage device may comprise data storage comprising a first logical unit configured to store user data and a second logical unit configured to store an operating system. A first interface may be configured to couple to a host and a second interface may be configured to couple to a network. In a first mode, the data storage device may be configured to expose the first logical unit to the host and render the second logical unit inaccessible and, in a second mode, the data storage device may be configured to allow access to both the first and the second logical units. The first mode may comprise a direct attached storage (DAS) mode and the second mode may comprise a network attached storage (NAS) mode.

An apparatus and method for dynamic multiple actuator drive data access are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: receiving a data transfer request including at least one data package; determining a type of the data transfer request; partitioning the data package into a plurality of data segments, if the data transfer request is a parallel data mode request; assigning one or more actuator drivers and one or more actuator controllers for the data transfer request; initiating a data transfer to or from the data storage medium using one or more of the plurality of actuators corresponding to the one or more assigned actuator controllers; storing or retrieving an individual data package of the data transfer request to or from the data storage medium wherein the entire data package is wholly accessible to a single actuator, if the data transfer request is a random data mode request; and storing or retrieving an individual data segment of the data transfer request to or from the data storage medium wherein the data package is accessible to the plurality of actuators, if the request is a parallel data mode request.
摘要:
An input/output (I/O) request is dispatched. A determination is made regarding a storage volume to service. A determination is made regarding whether an actual disk throughput exceeds a first threshold rate. The first threshold rate exceeds a reserved disk throughput. Responsive to determining that the actual disk throughput exceeds the first threshold rate, a first storage volume is selected based on credits or based on priority. Responsive to determining that the actual disk throughput does not exceed the first threshold rate, a second storage volume is selected based on guaranteed minimum I/O rate. An I/O request queue associated with the determined storage volume is determined. An I/O request is retrieved from the determined I/O request queue. The retrieved I/O request is sent to a persistence layer that includes the selected storage volume.

Provided are a storage device, controller, and method for using host transfer rates to select a recording medium transfer rate for transferring data to a recording medium. A host transfer rate of data with respect to a buffer is measured. Provided are a plurality of recording medium transfer rates at which data is transferred between the buffer and the recording medium. A determination is made of an amount of decrease in the host transfer rate. The recording medium transfer rate is selected based on the amount of decrease in the host transfer rate. A transfer rate at which the storage device transfers data is set to the selected recording medium transfer rate.

A hard disk includes a manager, a managed component, a management interface a network interface, and a system on chip (SOC). The management interface receives an external management command. The manager performs an operation according to the received external management command on a managed component corresponding to the received external management command, and returns an operation result through the management interface to the cloud server. The network interface receive an external read/write operation command sent by the cloud server. The SOC performs a read/write operation according to the received external read/write operation command and returns a read/write operation result through the network interface.
