  • Patent number: 10650854
    Abstract: A heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) medium has a heat-sink layer, a chemically-ordered FePt (or CoPt) alloy magnetic layer and a MgNiO intermediate layer between the heat-sink layer and the magnetic layer. The intermediate layer is a solid substitution crystalline alloy of the form (Mg(100-y)Niy)O, where y is less than 10 and greater than or equal to 0.5. The magnetic layer may be formed directly on the MgNiO intermediate layer, in which case the MgNiO intermediate layer functions as both a seed layer and a thermal barrier layer. The HAMR medium may also include an optional layer of crystalline “pure” MgO directly below or directly above the MgNiO intermediate layer. If the MgO layer is located directly above the MgNiO intermediate layer then the MgNiO intermediate layer functions primarily as a thermal barrier layer. The HAMR medium with the MgNiO intermediate layer provides a substantial improvement in corrosion resistance.

  • Patent number: 10534561
    Abstract: A storage apparatus and a storing method are provided. The storage apparatus includes one or more storage devices, an interface expander and a master controller. The storage device includes a storage module, a storage control circuit and a ready/busy pin. The storage control circuit outputs an operational state signal according to an operational state of the storage module through the ready/busy pin. The master controller outputs an interface signal to indicate the interface expander to provide the operational state signal. The interface expander detects the ready/busy pin of the storage device to receive and transmit the operational state signal from the storage device to the master controller according to the interface signal. The master controller determines whether the storage device is in a busy state or a ready state according to the operational state signal, and accordingly outputs a control signal to control operations of the storage devices.
