20080209198 | Boot Acceleration For Computer Systems - Boot acceleration for computer systems is disclosed. In an exemplary embodiment, a method of boot acceleration for a computer system may comprise monitoring data requests during a boot procedure. The method may also comprise pre-fetching data from a storage device during a subsequent boot procedure based at least in part on the monitored data requests. The method may also comprise accessing the pre-fetched data from a cache to accelerate the subsequent boot procedure. | 08-28-2008 |
20110016283 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONFIGURING A STORAGE ARRAY - There is provided a system and method of configuring a storage array. An exemplary method includes generating information within a storage array controller, the information corresponding to a menu of user options. The exemplary method also includes sending the information from the array controller to a user interface module. The exemplary method also includes sending user instructions comprising a selected menu option from the user interface module to the array controller. The exemplary method also includes executing a configuration task associated with the selected menu option. | 01-20-2011 |

20140325164 | SET HEAD FLAG OF REQUEST - A request is output to a first queue of a storage device. A head flag of the request is set based on whether the request is a read type request and a comparison of a percentage of requests queued at the first queue that are read type requests to a threshold percentage. The storage device is to store the request at a head of the first queue if the head flag of the request is set. | 10-30-2014 |
20140325235 | DECRYPT AND ENCRYPT DATA OF STORAGE DEVICE - Data read from a volume is decrypted using a first key. The decrypted data is encrypted using a second key. The encrypted data is written back to the volume. An access request to a location of the volume is received from a host. Data is encrypted to or decrypted from the location using the first or second key, in response to the access request. The first key is used for the access request if the location has not been decrypted using the first key and encrypted using the second key. The second key is used for the access request if the location has been decrypted using the first key and encrypted using the second key. | 10-30-2014 |
20140325242 | ENCRYPT DATA OF STORAGE DEVICE - A request from a host is received requesting data from a storage device. Data of the storage device is written into a buffer of the host. The data at the buffer is to be encrypted and written back to the storage device. The requested data of the request is written to the buffer after the encrypted data is written back to the storage device. | 10-30-2014 |
20150331616 | SET HEAD FLAG OF REQUEST - A request is output to a first queue of a storage device. A head flag of the request is set based on whether the request is a read type request and a comparison of a percentage of requests queued at the first queue that are read type requests to a threshold percentage. The storage device is to store the request at a head of the first queue if the head flag of the request is set. | 11-19-2015 |
