  • Apparatus and method for providing data storage device security
    Patent number: 7657487
    Abstract: A data storage device includes a data storage mechanism within which is stored a computing program. The data storage device also includes a surface used for labeling. The labeling includes machine readable security information. The data program requires machine reading of the security information before at least a portion of the program is run.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 5, 2002
    Date of Patent: February 2, 2010
    Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.
    Inventors: Daryl E. Anderson, David M. Kwasny, Mitchell A. Abrams, Andrew Van Brocklin, Paul J. Mcclellan, Tony S Cruz-Uribe, Michael A. Pate, Todd E. Walker, Charles R. Weirauch
  • Labeling with thermally conductive pads
    Patent number: 7462383
    Abstract: An optical disc includes an optical disc; a thermally conductive material disposed in a pattern of discrete pads on said disc; and a thermochromic material disposed over said pattern of thermally conductive material. A method of making an optical disc includes indenting a pattern onto an insulator; and depositing a thermally conductive material into indents of said pattern.
    Type: Grant

  • Marking optical disc based on information related to data side thereof
    Patent number: 7145586
    Abstract: Marking an optical disc based on information related to the data side thereof is disclosed. Information related to the data side of the optical disc is first determined. A marking based on the data side of the optical disc as has been read is then written with a laser to a label area on either the data side or the label side of the optical disc.

  • Variable fuel and fluid delivery system
    Patent number: 6945198
    Abstract: A fuel injector includes a first input for receiving a fuel and a second input for receiving a non-fuel fluid. The fuel injector also includes a fluid ejector that includes a first drop ejector for discretely ejecting droplets of the fuel, the fluid ejector also including a second drop ejector for discretely ejecting droplets of the non-fuel fluid.
