		All that is required to configure an FTP Device is the address of a live FTP server, a valid login to this server, and a server-interpreted path specifying where the data should be stored.
		The “Device” icon in the lower level on the toolbar is selected for the set level, whereas the “Device” icon on the top level is selected for the global level.
		When a device is selected on the set level, that information will be retained in the set properties, so that the next time you “load” the set, the same storage device will be selected automatically.

	Archive: USB Storage - FAQ for Driver and Hardware Developers
		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.
		Device manufacturers can create personalized, or custom, product icons and include them in their driver packages so that the end user sees an icon that resembles the actual device when using Windows XP and future versions of the Windows operating system.
		Device manufacturers for USB mass storage devices must include a USB serial number in their USB Bulk-Only device.

	Smart Computing Article - How To...Buy A Storage Device (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		There are some external storage devices that match hard drive speeds, but the first time you drop the media from such a device you'll wish you had bought a fixed hard drive.
		Buying a storage device designed for an ATA/66 interface and attaching it to an ATA/33 port wastes much of the hard drive's potential, but you may want to mix and match if you plan to use the storage device on a computer you may purchase in the future.
		SCSI devices are hard to install and configure, but it may be worth the effort for someone who wants maximum performance from all storage devices, not just the hard drive.

	The Mass Storage Page
		For many mass-storage devices, including hard drives and flash drives, the sole purpose of the device is to enable the host to store and retrieve files.
		For these devices, the device firmware doesn't have to know or care what file system the host is using.
		Device firmware might also want to read configuration data or other information that the host has stored in a file on the device.

	HOWTO USB Mass Storage Device - Gentoo Linux Wiki
		Add the option "sync" to have synchronous changes between the actual usb mass storage device and the place that it's been mounted.
		This has the advantage of not losing data if you forgot to unmount a device and also you would see how long it will take when you are transfering data to it.
		If you want to format your USB mass storage device with a Linux filesystem (that are better than the FAT filesystem (symlinks, posix, no 4GB limitation,...)), you might need Windows compatibility.

		As of 2004, most current main-stream operating systems include support for USB mass storage devices, although support on older systems is available through patches.
		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.

	Introduction to Storage Device Drivers
		A storage class driver is a class driver for a SCSI or non-SCSI storage device.
		The particular bus to which a storage device is connected is transparent to the storage class driver.
		Device drivers that support partitioned media should support all Windows partition types, which include but are not limited to FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS, plus UDF 1.5 and 2.0 for CD and DVD.

	Device demos terabit storage TRN 011503
		The researchers' prototype storage device packs 1.5 trillion dots per square inch, and so could store 1.5 terabits in one square inch of material, said Yasuo Cho, an associate professor of electrical engineering at Tohoku University in Japan.
		The storage material, a thin film of single-crystal lithium tantalate, is ferroelectric, meaning its atoms are aligned electrically, or polarized.
		The device uses an alternating electric field to measure the change in capacitance, or ability to store an electric charge, between domains, which reveals the different polarizations.

	Mass Storage Device Interfaces
		A successor to IPI, SMD (stands for Storage Module Device) was used on 8 and 14-inch minicomputer hard drives in the 70s and 80s.
		The selection of which device is the master and which is the slave is normally selected through the use of jumper blocks on each device.
		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.

		From the device's viewpoint, the execution of the instruction could cause the addressed storage to be accessed more than once (possibly causing a loss of information if the accesses cause side-effects).
		To order stores to devices on two different PCI buses requires additional software protocols, such as performing a load from one device to ensure that a store has completed before permitting a store to a second device that is on a different PCI bus.
		Device driver programs often require accesses to shared storage (that is, storage that is read or written by other program threads or I/O devices).

	storage.itworld.com - EMC launches new midrange network storage device
		Storage industry leader EMC Corp. announced Monday the release of its newest generation, fibre channel-based network storage system, along with upgraded software and support services that it says will further blur the line between storage-area networks (SAN) and network-attached storage (NAS).
		Industry analysts said the device was a direct challenge to Sunnyvale, California.-based Network Appliance Inc., which has had a firm grip on the midrange NAS market.
		More and more, enterprise-class businesses are struggling with the decision of whether to install SANs, which interconnect users to different kinds of data-storage devices via a server using fibre-channel host bus adapters, or less-sophisticated NAS, which is disk storage that connects directly to a network via a LAN interface.

	Techworld.com - InPhase plans holographic storage device for 2006
		InPhase's holographic storage media stores data in three-dimensional holograms cut into a polymer material 1.5 mm (0.06 inch) thick that is placed between two 130 mm (5.1-inch) plastic discs.
		Because holographic devices are able to store data in three-dimensional "pages," they are expected to have a much larger capacity than CDs or DVDs, which store data only on the disc's surface.
		Although scientists have been able to demonstrate working holographic storage discs under controlled conditions, the technology is not yet mature enough to be commercialised, said Steve Duplessie, a senior analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group.

		- A USB drive -- also known as a flash drive or keychain drive -- is a plug-and-play portable storage device that uses flash memory and is lightweight enough to attach to a key chain.
		Several manufacturers offer additional features such as password protection, and downloadable drivers that allow the device to be compatible with older systems that do not have USB ports.
		With a USB drive, data can be retained for long periods when the device is unplugged from the computer, or when the computer is powered-down with the drive left in.
