  • METHOD FOR PROVIDING ERROR DETECTION FOR A DISK DRIVE OF A SET TOP BOX
    Publication number: 20230082836
    Abstract: Various implementations described herein are directed to technologies for providing error detection for a disk drive of a digital video recorder (DVR). Access data is measured according to a degree of usage of a disk drive of a DVR. The access data is stored. The stored access data is analyzed to detect performance degradation of the disk drive.

  • Set-top disk health diagnostics
    Patent number: 9832525
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media can be operable to monitor for and alert the occurrence of pre-failure indicators at a set-top box (STB) disk. Results of self-monitoring tests, short tests, and maximum/minimum performance tests may be used to identify the potential for a STB disk failure. Moreover, critical error events at the STB may be logged, and the health of the STB disk may be determined based on the logged critical error events. Test results and critical error event logs may be used to predict an impending failure of a STB disk, and a notification may be output to a user or technician indicating the potential need to replace the STB or STB disk.
