摘要:
Various methods, devices and systems are described for providing distributed storage services. A data storage device is capable of initiating a communication session with an external entity such as a local host computer (and vice versa) coupled directly to the data storage device, a remote server computer, or directly with remote data storage devices with or without intervention by a local host computer.
摘要:
Various methods, devices and systems are described for providing dual representation of stored digital content are described where the dual representation includes logical block data and corresponding data objects. Data object property information is synchronized with the data objects.

Digital content distribution and consumption that provides the advantages of digital content being locally stored under user control while concurrently having the widest acceptance by legacy players/platforms (i.e., no need to perform complex software integration) while still remaining compatible with state of the art security in order to satisfy content provider requirements.
摘要:
When a storage device initiates a change in its file system, it locally stores it for future update of the file system. When the host device sends a command to the storage device, the storage device responds to it by commencing a synchronization process during which the two parties coordinate the update of the file system with the stored change. If there are no file system changes pending in the host device, the storage device gets permission from the host device to update the file system with the change and, then, the host device reads the updated file system from the storage device. If there are file system changes pending in the host device, the host device updates a representation of the file system residing in the host device, causes the storage device to make the same changes, and then the storage device initiated change, in the file system. Lastly, the host device receives information from the storage device regarding the changes initiated by the storage device.

摘要:
A computing device including a host device (HD) is in communication with a local storage device (LSD), wherein the LSD includes a memory array. A search index is generated with respect to data stored in the memory array of the LSD. By the LSD without involvement of the HD, the index data is generated with respect to the data stored in the memory array of the LSD. By the LSD, the generated index data is stored on the LSD as at least a part of the search index. The index may include data that can be used to respond to search queries with respect to data of the LSD. The queries may be originated from a HD or from within the LSD. The use of the index is not limited to responding to search queries. For example, the index may be used for content screening.
