For embedded computing
hackers, mass storage (like hard drives) is often the most frustrating
piece of the puzzle, as the fragile and power-hungry spin of the hard
drive is usually the last non-solid-state part in the whole
deployment. And while most engineers will just use a Compact Flash
card, sometimes the only option is an ATA (hard drive) connection;
that's where the IFD-iV flash memory parts from IO Data Device
Corporation come in. Basically just flash memory drives, the defining
feature of the IFD-iVs (besides fairly rugged operating
specifications) is that they use the standard ATA connection of a hard
drive, meaning they can be deployed in place of hard drives when
necessary. Models up to 2GB in capacity will be available for around
$2,100 -- maybe we'll just deal with the fragile hard drives
instead.

FireWire Hard Drives and The Future of
the TBU
FireWire Hard Drives and The Future of
the TBU
06/12/2004 06:49 PM
I bought
a FireWire hard drive enclosure the other day, and I'm awfully happy
with it. It cost about $45 and I filled it with an old 40GB hard
drive I had lying around. It works beautifully — plug it into a
FireWire port and you get a G: drive.
It makes me wonder what'll happen to the venerable tape backup unit
(TBU). I have a TBU on my server, but it's old, slow, cranky, and
only holds 20GB. Furthermore, 20GB tapes are like, $30 while hard
drives are running less than a dollar per gigabyte these days.
Right now, I can think of no reason why I would use my TBU for
anything anymore. Am I missing something? I imagine that tapes are
physically pretty durable, certainly more so than a hard drive, but is
there anything else?
I'm using this portable hard drive for off-site backups. Once a
week, I'll bring the drive in, copy the latest backups onto it, and
take it home where it will sit on my bookshelf for a week until I
bring it in again to refresh the backups.
FireWire hard drives, incidentally, are fast as lightning. I have
a small
RAID Tower which runs via FireWire. You'd never know it wasn't an
internal SCSI drive. In fact, I installed a very CPU- and
I/O-intensive server process on it once and it ran beautifully.
Again, the simplicity is amazing — plug it in and you get an F:
drive, end of story.
I'm so impressed with the utility of these things that I'd go so
far as call them mandatory equipment for your PC. The enclosure will
cost you $45. I found a 40GB Maxtor drive on Froogle for $32. I bought a
FireWire card and cable on eBay last year for $15. That's $92 for
40GB of removable storage that you can throw in a fanny pack —
tough to beat.
On my next PC, I'm going to physically separate the operating
system from my data files. I'll keep all my data on an external
FireWire unit, and only keep the OS and program files on the internal
IDE unit. I'd love for my PC to be essentially disposable. If I have
a problem, just pave and reload it knowing that all my data files are
safe and secure a few feet away on the external unit. Perversely, I
may mirror them on the internal drive just for redundancy.
For the record, I bought the Metal Gear Box from
NewEgg. It was rock simple to get running — find a hard drive,
physically screw it into the unit, plug it two cables, then plug it
into the PC.
I'm not thrilled with look of the thing — it's all brushed
aluminum and black metal grating. (Kind of makes me feel like a
40-year-old man driving around in a lowered Civic with a big wing on
the back.) Additionally, when you put it down, there's no padding or
rubber stops, so it kind of clanks against the desk, which makes me a
little nervous.
Anyway, the theory is valid. External hard drives: good.
FireWire: great. Go get one.

apparently had some hard drives behind the counter with "secret"

I have a fairly convoluted set of alternate backup systems that seems
to get more complex every time I have yet another catastrophic hard
drive failure (such as the latest, which occurred two weeks ago).
Right now I have two external USB hard drives, one Mirra backup
server, and an offsite service that scoops up data off of my computer
every few hours and stores it in some hidden location. The second USB
hard drive is because the latest hard drive failure (only a week after
I had been told the machine had been "fixed") happened while I was
away and didn't have access to the other USB hard drive that remained
at home, or the Mirra server which only accepts backups on the local
network. The offsite remote backup worked, but was slow and had
limited space. So, I ended up with another external hard drive to
save whatever data I could get off the old hard drive before it kicked
it for good. When I got back home and went back to my old crappy
desktop (which is here for just these circumstances) I discovered that
the USB connections on this machine no longer work - so I can't
actually access the data saved on the hard drive (though, I can access
older data on the Mirra device). Unfortunately, I can't seem to get
data from the hard drive to the Mirra device, so I'm basically stuck
until I get my laptop back and it has a working USB system. With that
backdrop in mind, it's great that Maxtor and Linksys are teaming up to offer a
wireless way to connect to an external hard drive. Basically,
they've created a bridge that lets an external hard drive connect
directly to a wireless router (which, in some ways, just mimics what
the Mirra backup server is supposed to do, though with fewer
features). Either way, it looks like backup systems are getting
easier and easier, meaning no one has any excuse not to have something
set up these days. Of course, the next time my hard drive fails, I'm
sure I'll need to pick up one of these new systems.

Portable Hard Drive
03/14/2005 06:26 PM
Harddrives : a critical part of any personal computer. They store our
personal data, files, operating systems and much more. Over the last
decade, the industry has gone through some major changes both in terms
of the hardware and the companies involved.
Seagate is one of an increasingly small number of harddrive vendors to
stick through tough times and keep on producing good gear. Founded in
1979, the company stayed at the forefront of the industry making the
first 5.25" harddrive, the first 7,200 RPM diskdrive, and the
first fiber channel interface disk drive.
<strong>Today, we're looking at a portable harddrive from
Seagate</strong>. It's basically a small (2.5") harddrive
packed inside a strong shell with a high speed, USB 2 adaptor on rear;
it's also got a bright blue LED light for good measure. Seagate offer
two version of the drive; a 40gig version and a 100gig version - we
looked at the 100gig version. Read on the review!

09/14/2004 11:18 AM
Oops, I almost forgot about these new cameras
announced from JVC - the ones they've been hyping up to no end as
their big "mystery product." Basically, they're camcorders with hard
drives in them - a 4GB microdrive, to be exact. They look pretty cool
and everything, but they're really most interesting because they are
the first consumer camcorder with a built-in hard drive, not because
they do anything particularly unique. That being said, I fully support
this idea, and think most consumer recording technology should move to
hard drives as soon as possible (I'll be waiting until you can get
something with a bigger hard drive than 4GB for less than $1,500,
though).
Both models (the GZ-MC100 and the GZ-MC200) can record up to 9Mbps
in MPEG2, though, which is DVD quality.

was announced like a year ago? Well it's finally ready to go
into production in April. And it was 2GB back then, but now it's up to
4GB. Toshiba plans to put the drives in portable audio players and
cell phones. Let's hope they have some nice shock protection in these,
because one good fall and oops, there goes your whole contact
list.
