    摘要: A floppy disk driver intended to protect the disk center hole from damage when the disk is mounted. The arrangement includes a speed detection circuit for detecting a relatively low rotational speed of the disk and a control circuit for speeding up the disk to a higher rotational speed for the read/write operation in response to the detection of the lower disk speed, whereby the disk is protected from damage by being rotated at the lower speed when its center hole is held between the collet and spindle.

    摘要: A housing for an information recording and reproducing apparatus is adapted for increased storage capacity and an increased operating speed by placing a relatively larger number of relatively smaller magnetic disks each having a relatively smaller mass and a relatively smaller recording and reproducing surface in an enclosure and housing the enclosure for a relatively larger magnetic disc in a box-like frame. A shock absorbing device is disposed between the enclosure and the box-like frame to absorb shock. A circuit assembly for controlling the operation of recording and reproducing is disposed outside the enclosure and between the frame and the enclosure.

    摘要: An external storage system is connected to a host system. A controller unit interposed between disk drives and the host system has a large capacity buffer memory with a battery providing non-volatile storage, a plurality of host interfaces and a plurality of drive interfaces. All the accesses made to the disk drives from the host system are realized via the buffer memory which allows a high-speed access. Read/write processing performed for the buffer memory by the host system is executed asynchronously with read/write processing performed between the buffer memory and the disk drives. The drive interface and the host interface area released during a period in which operation of the disk drive is waited for and recoupled upon data transfer.

    摘要: An electronic apparatus, such as a disk apparatus, has a plurality of electronic units such as magnetic head-disk units and at least one power source unit for supplying power to the electronic units. The arrangement of the electronic apparatus is such that, on a frame of the apparatus, the plurality of electronic units are vertically arranged in such a manner as to form a first arrangement system, while the at least one power source unit is arranged in such a manner as to form a second arrangement system above the first arrangement system. The apparatus has an air flow passage for causing cooling air to flow from a lower portion of the electronic apparatus to the inside thereof, pass through the first arrangement system, thereby pass through the second arrangement system, and then be discharged to the outside of the apparatus. This arrangement enables cooling air to flow in a simplified manner, which in turn enhances the cooling efficiency, and also enables electrically connecting cables to be arranged in a simple wiring system.

    摘要: Because of increase in data recording density on a magnetic disk in recent years, a minute defect which posed no problem in the past exerts adverse influence upon the recording and reproducing characteristics. An object of the present invention is to provide a method and an apparatus for detecting minute defects on a magnetic disk. In order to achieve this object, the present invention was made on the basis of the recognition that a large defect on the magnetic disk largely decreases the amplitude of the reproduced signal and shifts its phase, whereas a small defect does not decrease the amplitude of the reproduced signal so largely but causes a phase shift. Therefore, defects on the magnetic disk are detected by monitoring the amplitude decrease and phase shift of the reproduced signal.

    摘要: A magnetic head loading apparatus serves to load a magnetic head on the surface of a disc-shaped magnetic recording medium rotating continuously so as to perform the recording and reproduction of data. The magnetic head is shifted from unload to load position by means of a drive means. In order to prevent damage to the recording medium due to the collision of the magnetic head with the recording medium, the drive means is so controlled as to cause the magnetic head to decellerate as the magnetic head approaches the load position.

    摘要: The write data is entered from the upper unit into a nonvolatile cache provided in a controller inside of each disk unit through a channel adaptor, a cache shared by each disk, and a disk adaptor. The data from the cache is compressed by the data compressing and restoring device and is written in the disk. At a time, the management information for compressed data is written in the cache and the disk as well. In case of breaking the management information of the cache when a failure takes place in the cache memory, the management information is written for each disk. Hence, the breakage does not have an adverse effect on the other disks. If the management information of the cache is broken, the management information given into the disk may be replaced with the broken information.
