Abstract: A modular data storage system includes a shared main PCB comprising at least one system controller, configured to operate with multiple stacked storage devices, such as modified hard disk drives in which most of the drive-unique components are kept on each drive. Each storage device is mechanically and electrically connected with the main PCB at or near an end of the storage device, and the controller is centrally positioned on the main PCB so that the total electrical transmission line length between the storage devices and the controller circuitry is minimized. Further, the controller circuitry may be positioned on the main PCB so that each electrical transmission line length between a respective storage device and the controller circuitry is substantially equivalent. Signal integrity is significantly simplified for high-speed interfaces and shorter interconnects help meet timing requirement for low-speed interfaces.

Abstract: In the context of an electronic device such as a solid-state storage drive, use of an enclosure cover including an inlet port through a first lateral sidewall and a corresponding cooling duct coincident with first inlet port enables directing of airflow laterally to below the cover to a printed circuit board housed therein. To further augment device cooling within specification-dictated restrictions, a row of ventilation slots may be used for directing additional lateral airflow over the outer surface of the cover. Still further, interfacing tooth structures in the cover and corresponding base enable cost-effective end-to-end airflow through the device by avoiding machining steps during manufacturing, while still mitigating risk of electrostatic discharge.

Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to safely deploy a plurality of upgrade variants to different resource units that provide a service by utilizing small-scale deployment and validation. To deploy upgrade variants, a system receives a selection of upgrade variants from a feature group and automatically selects an appropriate set of resource units at which to deploy the upgrade variants. The system is further configured to collect and analyze telemetry data from the set of resource units to determine if any problems have occurred as a result of the deployed upgrade variants. By analyzing the telemetry data, the system can also identify one or more upgrade variants that are causing the problems. In response, the system can remove the identified variants and proceed with deployment of the remaining upgrade variants.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system for improving the user experience in the face of a regression by returning resources that offer a service to a “last known good” upgrade. In other words, the state of the resources is reconfigured to scale back from recent upgrade(s), the deployments of which likely caused the regression, to a previous upgrade that is known to have little or no effect on the user experience. To identify a problem, the system collects performance data from different resource units that make up a cloud-based platform. The performance data is collected for each upgrade event in a sequence of upgrade events that are currently deployed or being deployed. The system continually tracks and analyzes qualification data collected for each of the deployed upgrade events. The system can tag an upgrade event as the last known good upgrade event when the collected qualification data satisfies predefined qualifications.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to reducing radio frequency (RF) interference in data storage devices, including both hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid state drives (SSDs). RF signals penetrate data storage devices through gaps in the drive enclosure. By providing a conductive connection between a top plate and the base body, a reduction in RF signals penetrating into the interior of a data storage device such as an HDD or SSD and thus, RF interference is reduced.
