    摘要: Some embodiments include a storage device with a storage medium having a memory capacity. The storage device also includes virtual storage device firmware that is configured to directly respond to commands from a guest operating system in a virtual machine for accesses to a subset of the memory capacity of the storage medium when a virtual storage device is enabled.

    摘要: A data storage device encrypts data stored in non-volatile memory using a bulk encryption key. The data storage device uses a key derivation function to generate an initial encryption key. The data storage device then wraps an intermediate encryption key with the initial encryption key and stores the wrapped intermediate key in the non-volatile memory. The data storage device wraps the bulk encryption key with the intermediate encryption key and stores the wrapped bulk encryption key in the non-volatile memory. The data storage device can unwrap the wrapped intermediate key to generate the intermediate encryption key using the initial encryption key. The data storage device can unwrap the wrapped bulk encryption key to generate the bulk encryption key using the intermediate encryption key. The data storage device decrypts data stored in the non-volatile memory using the bulk encryption key.

    摘要: A disk drive that includes nonvolatile memory for use when the disk drive is in standby mode also uses the nonvolatile memory, together with a volatile memory, as a cache when the disk drive is in both standby and non-standby mode. Each of the data blocks stored on the disks is also stored in a cache line of either the volatile memory or the nonvolatile memory. Each cache line in both the volatile and nonvolatile memory stores one or more data blocks and an associated tag. The tag contains at least a portion of the logical block address that corresponds to the data block that is stored in the cache line. The volatile memory also has locations allocated to store tags that “shadow” the tags in the nonvolatile memory. By searching the shadow tags in the faster volatile memory, it can be determined if a data block is in the nonvolatile memory without searching the slower nonvolatile memory.

    摘要: The invention is a storage device which implements a write barrier command and provides means for a host to designate other write commands as being sensitive or insensitive to the existence of write barrier commands. The device can optimize the execution of commands by changing the order of execution of write commands that are insensitive to write barrier command. In an embodiment of the invention a flag associated with the write command indicates whether the command is sensitive or insensitive to the existence of write barrier commands. In an embodiment of the invention the write barrier command can be implemented as a write command with a flag that indicates whether the command is a write barrier command. In one embodiment of the invention the queue of commands and data to be written to the media is stored in a non-volatile cache.
