RAID-specific, time-limited error recovery (TLER) Reduces drive fallout caused by the extended hard drive error-recovery processes common to desktop drives. |
Dual actuator technology A head positioning system with two actuators that improves positional accuracy over the data track(s). The primary actuator provides coarse displacement using conventional electromagnetic actuator principles. The secondary actuator uses piezoelectric motion to fine tune the head positioning to a higher degree of accuracy. |
