摘要:
The present invention is directed toward methods and systems for data de-duplication. More particularly, in various embodiments, the present invention provides systems and methods for data de-duplication that may utilize a vectoring method for data de-duplication wherein a stream of data is divided into “data sets” or blocks. For each block, a code, such as a hash or cyclic redundancy code may be calculated and stored. The first block of the set may be written normally and its address and hash can be stored and noted. Subsequent block hashes may be compared with previously written block hashes.

A data storage system comprises a plurality of storage devices and a storage system controller. The storage system controller controls data and redundancy data stored to and read from the storage devices such that the data is stored at least in part in a region which comprises storage areas on least two of the storage devices and such that the storage devices appear as a single storage device to an entity external to the data storage system. The storage system controller comprises a redundancy data generator for generating the redundancy data, a de-duplication fingerprint definer to define a portion of the redundancy data as additionally representing a de-duplication fingerprint for the region, and a data de-duplicator to identify a duplicated region based upon finding a match to the de-duplication fingerprint within the redundancy data of the data storage system.

A method, system, apparatus, and computer readable medium storing instructions for recording data tracks and a method and system for reading data tracks. For recording data tracks, virtual boundary of a first data track recorded on the storage medium is determined. The recording element is positioned based on the determined virtual boundary of the first track and a second data track is recorded by the positioned recording element. For reading data tracks, a first virtual boundary of a first data track and a second virtual boundary of the first data track are determined and a reading element is positioned at a center of the first data track based on the determined virtual boundaries. In the system of reading recorded data tracks, a number of forward reading elements and backward reading elements are provided. The forward reading elements have different pitches.

An exemplary magnetic head assembly for use with magnetic recording media is provided. In one example, a head includes a data island associated with at least one data transducer, the data island having a width along a direction of media transport and a radius of curvature. The magnetic head further includes a mini-outrigger placed adjacent to the data island and separated by a void, wherein a width of the mini-outrigger along the direction of media transport is less than the width of the data island. Additionally, in one example, the radius of curvature of the mini-outrigger is less than the radius of curvature of the data island. The wrap angle of magnetic storage tape to the data island may be less than 3 degrees. Further, the radius of curvature of the mini-outrigger may be less than one-half the radius of curvature of the data island.

A universal format storage drive includes a first storage unit for storing tablets on a first storage medium, and a second storage unit for storing tablets on a second storage medium. The first and second storage units may have different access times, and the first and second media may be of different types. Tablets on the first and second storage media may be the same size and have the same format. A policy processor causes the transfer of a first tablet from the first storage unit to the second storage unit for storage on the second storage medium. The first tablet is transferred to the second storage unit and stored in the second storage medium without reformatting the first tablet. In particular, the first tablet may, in compressed form, be stored on the first storage medium and transferred to the second storage unit for storage on the second storage medium without decompression during any of the storage or transfer operations.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for constraining lateral motion of a tape streaming in a first direction across the transducing face of a magnetic head by provision of at least one arcuate portion of the tape travel path. This arcuate portion is defined by one set of at least three tape guide rollers on a first side of the head. A second set of at least three tape guide rollers may be provided to define a second arcuate portion of the tape guide path on a second side of the head for use when the tape is streaming in a second direction opposite to the first direction across the transducing face of the head.
