	Mass storage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In computing, mass storage refers to storage of large amounts of information in a persisting and machine-readable fashion.
		Storage media for mass storage include hard disks, floppy disks, flash memory, optical discs, magneto-optical discs, magnetic tape, punched tape (historic) and holographic memory (experimental).
		The design of computer architectures and operating systems are often dictated by the mass storage and bus technology of their time.

	Encyclopedia: USB mass storage device class
		The USB mass storage device class is a set of computing communications protocols defined by the USB Implementers Forum that run on the Universal Serial Bus.
		Windows Mobile supports most mass storage devices formatted with FAT on devices with USB Host, although devices powered by it typically cannot provide enough power on their own to run hard drives.
		The USB mass storage as such does not specify which file system shall be used on the device using it; instead, it mainly provides a way of reading out sectors as on any hard disk device.

	mass storage - Webopedia.com
		The earliest storage devices were punched paper cards, which were used as early as 1804 to control silk-weaving looms.
		Mass storage is distinct from memory, which refers to temporary storage areas within the computer.
		Mass storage is measured in kilobytes (1,024 bytes), megabytes (1,024 kilobytes), gigabytes (1,024 megabytes) and terabytes (1,024 gigabytes).

	IBM Archives: IBM 3850 mass storage system - page 2 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The components of the 3850 mass storage system are the new data cartridges, the IBM 3851 mass storage facility, the new IBM 3830 storage control Model 3 and the widely used 3330-series disk subsystem.
		It is equipped with a buffer storage that allows it simultaneously to transfer data with both the mass storage facility and the computer.
		The 3851 mass storage facility is available under IBM's Extended Term Plan (ETP), which provides for a two-year contract period, for monthly rentals ranging from $10,600 for a minimum-capacity model to $51,200 for a 472-billion character configuration with two mass storage facilities.

	Mass storage and long-term preservation
		The two terms "mass storage" and "long-term preservation" embrace a contradiction in the current state of affairs of digital library development, representing a time bomb that threatens the long-term viability of this new type of library.
		Storage systems should be capable of handling digital information in a wide variety of formats, including text, data, graphics, video, and sound.
		Nevertheless, improvements in the stability, capacity, and longevity of the base storage media are needed to drastically reduce the vulnerability of digital materials to loss and alteration and to lower storage costs.

	Mass Storage Device Interfaces
		Mass storage devices are no different — they have interfaces too.
		No matter what interface a mass storage device uses, the inner workings of the device has a bearing on its performance.
		Some storage hardware (usually those that incorporate removable drive "carriers") is designed so that the act of plugging a module into place automatically sets the SCSI ID to an appropriate value.

		To move files between your computer and mass storage, ftp to isis.unc.edu or to one of the research systems (if you have subscribed to those), login, cd to ms, and then get or put your files.
		In some circumstances, it may be useful for departments to have mass storage space where collaborators and project teams can store data shared by all members of the group.

	USB Storage - FAQ for Driver and Hardware Developers
		Additional documentation for usbstor.sys and driver support for USB mass storage devices are available in the current version of the Windows Driver Development Kit (DDK), available through the MSDN® Library and from the Windows DDK Web site at http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/ddk/default.mspx.
		USB mass storage class devices are supported by usbstor.sys, which is loaded using Plug and Play (PnP) hardware identifier (HWID) or compatible identifier matching in usbstor.inf.
		Because the USB storage class uses bulk endpoints for transfers, having several storage devices operational at the same time might cause individual devices to scale back from peak throughput if there is bus congestion and if they are connected to the same host controller.

		A storage hierarchy is a set of rules that defines the migration of data onto different storage media.
		For example, a storage hierarchy used for small files may be different than one for very large files, or the hierarchy for institutional data may be different than the one used for student accounts.
		While one of the main design goals for the Massive Data Storage initiative was to "Create a non-restrictive mass storage architecture for Indiana University that meets the needs of IU's community and can be scaled economically and efficiently to support new users, applications and services", having limited resources means that we must ensure equitable use.

	Apple Mass Storage Class Driver always matches to my device at startup
		If the mass storage device with media, is not present at system start time, but is attached anytime afterwards or the media is inserted later on, then the standard device driver arbitration mechanism is used which will match the device to a vendor specific driver, if present.
		During the development of the Apple Mass Storage class driver for Mac OS 9, it was understood that if the USB mass storage device was not the boot device, that there should be a way to allow the Apple driver to be replaced by a vendor specific driver later on, if one was present.
		The first option is to inform users as to the limitation of the Apple Mass Storage class driver when the USB device is attached at system start, and to advise them to un-mount USB device volumes, unplug the device and reconnect the device.
