Abstract: A method and device of data protection and a storage equipment. The method includes: when receiving from a host a writing command, carrying an address and data to be stored, writing the data to be stored into a first storage space, which corresponds to the address, in a storage unit, and writing protection data corresponding to the data to be stored into a second storage space, which corresponds to the address, in a protection unit; when receiving from the host a reading command, carrying the address, determining recovery data according to the data stored in the first storage space and the data stored in the second storage space; and taking the recovery data as response data for the reading command. The method achieves efficient data protection of a storage equipment.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for maintaining a key information area in a file system are provided, which can provide effective maintenance to the key information area in the file system used by a storage device, and be applied to maintaining various file systems. The method for maintaining a key information area in a file system comprises the following steps: backing up the key information area confirmed by a user in the file system when the file system used by a storage device is hooked for the first time, and creating a device list as a backup index, wherein the device list is stored in an external storage device; and obtaining corresponding backup information to recover the key information area when the storage device is started exceptionally due to destroy of the key information area.
