Abstract

A computer system is provided. The computer system includes a data storage device having a controller and a data storage unit connected to the controller, wherein the controller includes a firmware which defines a backup and recovery operation, and the data storage unit includes a first storage sector and a second storage sector. The first storage sector stores a backup file and has a resident program installed therein. The resident program is executed after the computer system is normally booted for periodically transmitting a handshake instruction to perform a handshaking with the controller. When the computer system is booted and a preset number that the controller does not receive the handshake instruction is reached within a preset time period, the firmware executes the backup and recovery operation to restore the backup file in the first storage sector through a cooperation between the first storage sector and the second storage sector.

Abstract

A SATA connector capable of transmitting electric power directly includes female and male connectors. The female connector includes a body and two first power pins. A front end of the body includes a first interface with two sidewalls. An end of the first power pin is disposed on two sidewalls of the first interface, and another end of the first power pin is extended out of a rear end of the body. The male connector includes a body and two second power pins. Both sides of the body have a side groove, and the side groove has an external sidewall. The sidewall includes a notch for exposing an end of the second power pin, and another end of the second power pin is extended out of the body. When the male and female connectors are connected, the second and first power pins constitute an electric connection for transmitting electric power.

Abstract

A storage device includes two flash memories of different flash memory types, and respectively including multiple data blocks. Each data block corresponds to a physical and a logical block address. The storage device further includes a processing module including a controller, which is capable of accessing two mapping tables respectively corresponding to the two flash memories and respectively recording the physical block addresses and the logical block addresses that correspond to the data blocks of the two flash memories. The controller is configured to determine, upon receipt of a command that contains a target logical block address therein, a selected one of the flash memories according to the target logical block address, and to locate a selected one of the physical block addresses by searching one of the mapping tables that corresponds to the selected one of the flash memories with reference to the target logical block address.
