Description

Mobile storage means

Technical field

The utility model relates to a kind of mobile storage means, exactly relates to a kind of mobile storage means of the SATA of support interface hard disk, belongs to the digital information storage technical field that is used for computing machine.

Background technology

At present, the hard-disk interface technology that is applied to PC mainly is the Parallel ATA technology, and the codes and standards that the Parallel ATA hard disk is carried out are American National Standard ATA/ATAPI-6 (American NationalStandard for Information Systems AT Attachment with Packet Interface-6) of infosystem.Main USB2.0 and IEEE1394 (live wire Fireware) technology used in external movable storage device.Use at present the external memory device of USB2.0 technology, generally partly form to the change-over circuit of ide interface and IDE hard disk etc. by USB interface, USB interface.Because the parallel data transmission needs numerous and diverse line, and may produce the high-frequency signal of interference, so the Parallel ATA line is shorter, work is also stable inadequately.

Serial ATA (being SATA, Serial ATA) is to transmit data by the sequential serial mode, and its major advantage transmission speed is fast, and in addition, the interface close friend also has the ability of self-configuration.Present SATA speed is 150MB/Sec, and the transfer rate of next-generation is 3.0Gb/Sec.Even the speed (150MB/Sec) that can reach at present has been USB2.0 and more than 3 times of IEEE1394 (live wire Fireware) technology.Serial ATA will become the substitute technology of Parallel ATA interface,

In recent years, the serial ATA technology is well developed, and has begun to be applied on the hard disc apparatus of PC, and may be applied on the computer equipments such as server.On the physical design of SATA hard disk and used data line and power lead, can guarantee can not damage SATA hard disk and other computer equipments to the hot plug of SATA hard disk; Along with the reinforcement of operation system of computer to hard disk hot-plug and real-time detection hard disk tenability, the hot plug of SATA hard disk is used can be more and more widely.When the SATA interface on PC or the server is external, but the also external mobile storage of appliance computer; Just adopt the movable storage device of serial ATA technology can be used for carrying out on PC or the server hot plug operations.But, do not support still that in the market SATA interface hard disk carries out the mobile storage means of hot plug operations.

The utility model content

The purpose of this utility model provides a kind of mobile storage means of the SATA of support interface, so that the SATA hard disk can be used as the hard disk hot-plug on PC PC and the server easily, and when the SATA interface is external, use as external movable storage device.

The purpose of this utility model is achieved in that a kind of mobile storage means of the SATA of support interface, includes: using and carrying the housing that prevents hard disk corruptions in the process, be installed in hard disk, data line interface and electric source line interface in the housing; It is characterized in that: described hard disk is employing standard SATA interface and the SATA interface hard disk that meets the SATA standard, and described data line interface and electric source line interface are the standard interface that meets the SATA standard all, and are arranged on an end of described hard disk.

Also include data connecting line and electric power connection line, described data connecting line is to be respectively applied for the corresponding interface that is connected data line interface and electric source line interface and relevant device with electric power connection line, so that this mobile storage means is connected with relevant device.

Described data line interface that is arranged on hard disk one end and electric source line interface stretch out housing and expose, so that peg graft data connecting line and electric power connection line respectively.

Described housing one end is provided with the both-end interface of data line and power lead; The interface that is positioned at hull outside in this both-end interface is used for peg graft respectively data connecting line and electric power connection line, the interface that is positioned at the housing inboard is connected with electric source line interface by the data line interface of connecting line with hard disk one end, or direct pegging graft with electric source line interface with the data line interface of hard disk one end links to each other.

Described data line interface and the electric source line interface installation site on hard disk or housing is two independently of one another, spaced-apart interfaces, also can be the interface that the next-door neighbour is set together.

Described housing is provided with that at least one is movable or dismountable, is used for the dismounting hard disk.

When this device was fixedly mounted in PC PC or the server as a hot-pluggable hard disk, its housing was packed on this PC PC or the server, and was provided with at least one movable or dismountable surface of shell, so that the hot plug hard disk; The data line interface of hard disk one end and electric source line interface all are connected with power lead both-end interface with data line in the cabinet that is arranged on this PC PC or server by connecting line.

The beneficial effects of the utility model are: the advantage of serial ATA technology is that transfer rate is fast, the speed 150MB/Sec that has reached at present is USB2.0 and more than 3 times of IEEE1394 (live wire Fireware) technology, when it is applied to external hard drive equipment, on transfer rate, have a clear superiority in.Because serial ATA is the substitute technology of Parallel ATA, to become the mainstream standard of PC hard disk gradually from now on, and obtain widely applying, the utility model makes the SATA hard disk to use as the hard disk hot-plug on PC PC and the server easily, and when the SATA interface is external, use as external movable storage device; In addition.This device also will make to support the mobile storage means of SATA interface to have lower cost of products because of a large amount of production reduces cost rapidly, for the computer user provides convenience, practical and cheap mobile storage means.
