  • Protection against electrical faults in a mass memory data storage system
    Patent number: 6295609
    Abstract: A multidisk storage system (SD) equipped with a redundancy mechanism comprises at least two disk units (UND1-UND3), at least one redundancy control unit (UNC1-UNC2), a power distribution point (P), and a control unit (EG1-EG5), located in proximity to the point (P), for triggering the opening of the corresponding line (LI1-LI5) in case of an electrical fault in the associated unit and in the line itself. This system therefore ensures an optimal protection against electrical faults and ensures an optimal availability of the data.
