Publication number: 20240143024Abstract: An example method is performed at a device with a display and a biometric sensor. While the device is in a locked state, the method includes displaying a log-in user interface that is associated with logging in to a first and second user account. While displaying the log-in user interface, the method includes, receiving biometric information, and in response to receiving the biometric information: when the biometric information is consistent with biometric information for the first user account and the first user account does not have an active session, displaying a prompt to input a log-in credential for the first user account; and when the biometric information is consistent with biometric information for the second user account and the second user account does not have an active session on the device, displaying a prompt to input a log-in credential for the second user account.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Raymond S.

Patent number: 8203806Abstract: A disk drive includes a ramp having a fixed portion that is fixed to the disk drive base, and a guide portion that is not. The guide portion includes a guide surface having a parking region that is in contact with an HGA lift-tab with the disk drive in a non-operational state. The guide surface also has a load/unload region that extends over a disk outer periphery. The guide surface defines a guide surface length that is measured from the parking region to the load/unload region. The ramp also includes a torsionally-compliant member connecting the fixed portion to the guide portion. A distance between the torsionally-compliant member and the parking region, measured approximately parallel to the guide surface length, is less than half the guide surface length. The guide portion is not connected to the fixed portion over at least two-thirds of the guide surface length.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2008Date of Patent: June 19, 2012Assignee: Western Digital Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Nils E.

Publication number: 20040104647Abstract: A mobile storage system includes a series of carriages which are movably mounted to a series of rails supported on a surface such as a floor. Storage units, such as drawer-type file cabinets, are adapted to be engaged with each carriage, and are movable on the rails along with the carriages. Each carriage is modular in construction, and incorporates a series of mobile housing assemblies interconnected by a structural cross-brace arrangement. At least one end of the carriage includes an end panel arrangement which overlies a sidewall of an endmost one of the storage units. The end panel arrangement includes a frame defining an interior, and one or more cover members are demountably secured to the frame so as to selectively cover the interior of the frame and to conceal the sidewall of the endmost storage units. A series of retainer members are interconnected with each carriage, and interact with the rails so as to prevent upward movement of the carriage relative to the rails.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 24, 2003Publication date: June 3, 2004Applicant: Spacesaver CorporationInventors: Brian R.

Patent number: 6684300Abstract: A switching router memory map is organized as 64-bit wide double words. The bi-directional data bus is only 32-bits wide, so the Least Significant Words (LSW) are mapped to the even addresses and the Most Significant Words (MSW) are mapped to the odd address. When the host writes to the even address the 32-bit data is stored in the bidirectional data bus buffer. When the host writes to the odd address the entire 64-bit double word access is posted to the appropriate global access bus. When a read operation is performed from an even address the entire 64-bit double word access is performed by the appropriate global access bus. The LSW is available on the bi-directional data bus address data pins and the 32-bit MSW is buffered within the bi-directional data bus. The host can access the MSW by performing a read from the odd address.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2000Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Nortel Networks LimitedInventors: Richard P. Modelski, John R. Edwards
