摘要： A data storage cartridge comprises data storage media configured to store data for read and/or write access, wherein the data may be arranged in a plurality of partitions; and a plurality of cartridge memories. A control system, for example of a data storage drive, is configured to allocate at least portions of capacity of the data storage media to cartridge memories of the data storage cartridge; and to provide information defining the allocated portions of capacity to the cartridge memories. Each of the cartridge memories may have a separate user and thus provide access for that user to separate partitions.

摘要： A holographic information recording apparatus is disclosed. The holographic information recording apparatus comprises a laser light source, a beam splitter, and a reflective spatial light modulator. The beam splitter provides a reference beam and a carrier beam, where that reference beam is directed without reflection toward a holographic data storage medium. The carrier beam is reflected off the reflective spatial light modulator to form a data beam comprising an image of information. The reference beam interacts with the data beam to form a hologram comprising the image. That hologram is then encoded in a holographic data storage medium.

摘要： 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.

摘要： A rotary switch rotates about an axis which is at acute angles to a lower cartridge surface and a cartridge end so that a first display surface and a second display surface may be independently accessed by disparate components residing in disparate planes. The display surfaces are generally orthogonal to each other and can have multiple facets, with each facet containing a subset of information. To aid this optical interrogation, the display surfaces may be generally orthogonal to the disparate interrogating components.

摘要： A disk drive data storage device and a method for implementing a sector selectable write-once read-many (WORM) functionality on the disk drive storage system are disclosed. Data stored in a sector on magnetic storage media or on rewritable optical media are protected from being overwritten by having additional (WORM) bits in the sector header to denote the protection status of the data in that sector. When data is to be written to a sector of a disk drive of the storage system, the sector header for that sector is read and the WORM bits are examined. If the value of the WORM bits indicates that the sector is protected, the write command will not be executed and an appropriate error condition is posted to the host system. If the WORM bits for the sector indicates no WORM protection, the data is written to the sector.

摘要： 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.
