Abstract: Disclosed is a thermal conduction-electrical conduction isolated circuit board with a ceramic substrate and a power transistor embedded, mainly comprising: a dielectric material layer, a heat-dissipating ceramic block, a securing portion, a stepped metal electrode layer, a power transistor, and a dielectric material packaging, wherein a via hole is formed in the dielectric material layer, the heat-dissipating ceramic block is correspondingly embedded in the via hole, the heat-dissipating ceramic block has a thermal conductivity higher than that of the dielectric material layer and a thickness less than that of the dielectric material layer, the stepped metal electrode layer conducts electricity and heat for the power transistor, the dielectric material packaging is configured to partially expose the source connecting pin, drain connecting pin, and gate connecting pin of the encapsulated stepped metal electrode layer.

Abstract: A method for performing data recovery in a redundant storage system and an associated apparatus are provided. The method includes: determining a state of a cache block of a plurality of cache blocks, in which the plurality of storage devices includes a set of Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) and a set of Solid State Drives (SSDs), an SSD Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID) of the redundant storage system includes the set of SSDs, and an HDD RAID of the redundant storage system includes the set of HDDs, in which the SSD RAID is utilized as a cache system of the HDD RAID and includes the plurality of cache blocks; and performing a retry-read operation on at least one of the HDD RAID and the SSD RAID according to the state of the cache block, to obtain a correct version of data within the redundant storage system.

Abstract: A method for performing cache management for a storage system and an associated apparatus are provided, where the storage system includes a plurality of storage devices. The method includes: utilizing a storage device of the plurality of storage devices as a cache of another storage device of the plurality of storage devices, in which an access speed of the storage device is higher than that of the other storage device, and the cache includes a plurality of cache blocks; and when a read miss of the cache occurs, reading data corresponding to at least one cache block from the other storage device to store the data into the cache, in which a data amount corresponding to the read miss is less than a data amount of each cache block of the plurality of cache blocks.

Abstract: A memory socket with a special contact mechanism comprising a plurality of socket pins arranged in two opposite rows leaning respectively against two inner projecting portions in a socket frame, and an interacting member movably installed between the two rows of the socket pins having a cam portion to pushes the socket pin at both sides away from the interacting member during the insertion of a memory module, so that the socket pin may be bended to contact the inserted memory module.
