    摘要: Methods and apparatus are provided for recording/reproduction of data in a probe-based data storage device (1) in which application of a write signal causes formation of an indentation in a storage surface (5) by a probe of the device (1). Instead of storing information in the presence or absence of indentations on the storage surface as is conventionally done in such devices, information is stored in the form of grooves of variable length separated by lands of variable length. More particularly, a sequence of n>1 successive bits of a first value (typically “1's”) in a recording signal is recorded by applying a series of write signals at respective probe-positions on the storage surface (5). These probe-positions are spaced at w≦M, where M is the indentation merging distance, so that the resulting indentations merge to form a groove in the storage surface (5) spanning n readback sample positions. The readback signal corresponding to the recording signal is sampled at timings corresponding to the readback sample positions to recover the original bit sequence. High density recording is provided because the readback sample position spacing s here satisfies s

    摘要: Exemplary embodiments of the present invention comprise a method for the use of an intra-disk redundancy storage protection operation for the scrubbing of a disk. The method comprises initiating a disk scrubbing operation upon each disk of a plurality of disks that are comprised within a storage disk array, issuing a disk scrubbing command for a predetermined segment of the disks that are comprised within the storage disk array at a predetermined time interval, and identifying an unrecoverable segment on a disk. The method further comprises determining if unrecoverable sectors comprised within the unrecoverable segment can be reconstructed, and reconstructing the unrecoverable sectors of the unrecoverable segment and relocating the segment to a spare storage location on the disk in the event that the segment cannot be reconstructed within its original storage location.

    摘要: A method for decoding Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes comprises executing a sum product algorithm to recover a set of information bits from an LDPC code represented as a bipartite graph of symbol nodes and check nodes, the sum product algorithm being responsive to input log likelihood ratios associated with the symbol nodes. The check nodes are updated by generating a set of forward difference metrics and a set of backward difference metrics in dependence on the ratios of logarithmic probabilities each associated with a corresponding symbol node of the LDPC code, updating each metric in the set of forward difference metrics in dependence on the absolute value of the log likelihood ratio associated with the symbol node and the absolute value of the previous metric in the set, updating each metric in the set of backward difference metrics in dependence on the absolute value of the log likelihood ratio associated with the symbol node and the absolute value of the previous metric in the set, and generating log likelihood ratios to be propagated back to each symbol node in dependence on the updated sets of forward and backward difference metrics.

    摘要: A method for decoding data in a data storage system includes generating an output bit stream; generating a first error corrected bit stream in dependence on the output bit stream; generating a second error corrected bit stream in dependence on the first error corrected bit stream; generating a checksum in dependence of the second error corrected bit stream; and, in the event that the checksum is indicative of errors in the second error corrected bit stream and the second error corrected bit stream comprises at least one correct interleave: supplying data indicative of locations of correct bits in the second error corrected bit stream; and, regenerating the first error corrected bit stream in dependence on the pinning data.
