Glossary of Hard Disk Drive Terminology (Letter I)

DATARECOVERYUNION.COM03 mins

IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics)
A type of drive where the interface controller electronics are incorporated into the design of the hard drive rather than as a separate controller.

Index Pulse Signal
A digital pulse signal indicating the beginning of a disk revolution. An embedded servo pattern or other prerecorded information is present on the disk following index.

Initiator
A device in control of the SCSI bus that sends commands to a target. Most SCSI devices have a fixed role as an initiator or a target; however, some devices can assume both roles.

Initialization
See low-level formatting.

Input
The incoming data that the computer processes, such as commands issued by the user.

Input/output (I/O)
An operation or device that allows input and output.

Interface
A hardware or software protocol that handles the exchange of data between the device and the computer; the most common ones are AT (also known as IDE) and SCSI. (See AT and SCSI.)

Interface controller
The chip or circuit that translates computer data and commands into a form suitable for use by the hard drive and controls the transfer of data between the buffer and the host. (See disk controller and disk drive controller.)

Interleave
The arrangement of sectors on a track.

Interrupt
A signal sent by a subsystem to the CPU that signifies a process has either completed or could not be completed.

ISA
Industry Standard Architecture. The standard 16-bit AT bus designed by IBM for the PC/AT system. ISA was the only industry standard bus for PCs until the recent release of MCA (MicroChannel Architecture), EISA (Extended Industry Standard Architecture), and PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect).

Ontrack Announces New SSD Recovery Technology

DATARECOVERYUNION.COM03 mins

Kroll Ontrack data recovery has announced that it has developed unique, proprietary capabilities to drastically improve the quality of data recovery from SSDs in less than a quarter of the time usually required. Engineers at Kroll Ontrack had to overcome a number of obstacles associated with flash media to develop these capabilities.

Data recovery from new technology can be very time-consuming because of the need to research the algorithms used to originally store the data; however, new capabilities from Kroll Ontrack automate many of the processes involved. As a result, it ensures a significantly more efficient recovery for a fast-growing market.

ssd-recoveryWear leveling is also a primary difficulty of data recovery from solid state media. It is a technique that balances usage evenly across all disk sectors to ensure the maximum functional life of the media because SSDs generally have a finite number of read/writes before they become unstable. If a media failure occurs, however, wear leveling creates a time-consuming process to piece the data back together.

Another hurdle for data recovery on SSDs is that individual memory chips on devices usually work in a RAID-like configuration, making data even less contiguous and more difficult to piece together in the event of a failing device malfunction or data corruption. Additionally, there are no standardized configurations across manufacturers; this means that the new SSD recovery capabilities need to be able to handle many forms of Error Checking & Control (ECC) and Correct Address Translation via Logical Block.

Ontrack Data Recovery experts conducted extensive research into SSD technology to create these new capabilities that address these issues. This resulted in an in-depth understanding of this media, which enabled the development of unique processes and procedures with the ability to improve recovery rates decreasing the average time per data recovery.
