20150027151 | AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS FOR AT LEAST TWO ROOMS USING A SINGLE OUTDOOR UNIT - A high-efficiency air conditioning system for conditioning a plurality of rooms within an interior of a building, the air conditioning system including: two separate rooms within a building, a single outdoor unit a refrigerant flow pathway that includes a plurality of refrigerant conduits having a common refrigerant flow path portion and at least two divergent flow path portions, a first divergent flow path where the first evaporator and second evaporator are in parallel with one another; at least one throttling device and at least a first indoor air handling unit positioned within and providing cooling to the first room and a second indoor air handling unit positioned within and providing cooling to a second room. The compressor is incapable of simultaneously supplying both the first evaporator and the second evaporator at their full cooling capacity. | 01-29-2015 |

20090150637 | Method and system for dynamically allocating read and write sequence randomizer - A data formatting system and method to improve data efficiency and integrity in a hard disk are disclosed. One embodiment provides a disk drive system having a plurality of lookup tables which store a plurality of randomizer seeds which may be dynamically encoded into the preamble field of a customer data block if the customer data is deemed marginal. Encoding the randomizer seed into the preamble field prevents adjacent data track mis-writes and mis-reads. | 06-11-2009 |
20150039806 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING A STORAGE DEVICE - A method of controlling a storage device includes detecting a cumulative usage condition associated with the storage device, comparing the cumulative usage condition to a usage value, and adjusting the operation of the storage device based on the comparison. Another method of controlling a storage device includes detecting an operating condition associated with the storage device, comparing the operating condition to a warranty condition, and limiting the operation of the storage device to read-only operation based on the comparison. | 02-05-2015 |

20080212235 | DATA RECORDING SLIDER HAVING AN AIR BEARING SURFACE PROVIDING HIGH PRESSURE RELIEF FOR VIBRATION DAMPING - A slider for magnetic data recording. The slider has an air bearing surface with a trailing edge pad that is configured with a series of recesses that damp slider oscillations during use. The series of recesses formed in the trailing pad of the slider reduce slider oscillations by creating localized pressure gradients within the generally high pressure area over the pad. The slider can be configured with a raised primary pad and a secondary raised pad formed on the primary raised pad. A series of recesses formed in the secondary pad prevent slider oscillations, which would otherwise be especially problematic in a slider having such a secondary raised pad and associated higher pressure area thereover. | 09-04-2008 |

20120099225 | SERVO WRITE ROBUST AND GOOD ALTITUDE PERFORMANCE ABS - A head slider for a disk drive storage device. In general, the head slider should fly at the target height above the disk without crashing onto the hard disk. The head slider has an outside flange that encloses a plateau and an inside flange that encloses a plateau. The two plateaus may have the same surface area or the outside plateau may have a greater surface area. Because of the design of the outside flange, the likelihood that the head slider will crash on the hard disk is reduced. | 04-26-2012 |
20130335852 | In-Situ Contact Potential Measurement in Hard-Disk Drives - Approaches are provided for a hard-disk drive (HDD) and a method for measuring the contact potential between head and disk interfaces within a hard-disk drive. In one example, a voltage bias is applied to a head slider at discrete increments, and the touchdown power is determined at each increment. The voltage bias at which the TDP maximizes equals the inverse polarity of the inherent contact potential between the head slider and disk, and this value may be used to apply a voltage that neutralizes the contact potential. | 12-19-2013 |
20140177090 | MEDIA TOPOGRAPHY DRIVEN FLYING HEIGHT MODULATION SENSING USING EMBEDDED CONTACT SENSOR - Approaches for a flying height control scheme in a hard-disk drive (HDD) device. The flying height control scheme utilizes an embedded contact sensor (ECS) to characterize the topography of a magnetic-recording disk at various flying heights of a head slider over a corresponding disk. A relation between a particular flying height and a corresponding ECS value which characterizes the media topography at that particular flying height is represented in disk topography data. The disk topography data is accessed and used for active flying height control for the head-disk interface in view of the current ECS value. | 06-26-2014 |
20140240871 | INTERFACE VOLTAGE CONTROL OPERATING POINT DETERMINATION IN A HARD DISK DRIVE - Approaches for an interface voltage control (IVC) system in a hard-disk drive (HDD), whereby the IVC operating point determination scheme utilizes non-contact spacing signals for calibration of IVC. While applying a series of input voltages to a slider, head-disk spacing signals are monitored, such as spacing signals from an embedded contact sensor or Wallace spacing loss spacing signals. Based on the relation between the spacing signal values and the series of input voltages, the IVC operating point is identified and stored within the HDD. The IVC operating point corresponds to the IVC input voltage necessary to neutralize the natural slider-disk voltage potential that would otherwise cause an electrostatic force that pulls the slider closer to the disk and can cause lubrication transfer from disk to slider. | 08-28-2014 |
