Abstract

See full text

A CD ROM server comprises a CD ROM drive and an array of hard disk drives. Means are provided for copying data from the CD ROM drive to the array of hard disk drives, and for deleting data from the array of hard disk drives, upon receipt of copy and delete requests, respectively, from a host computer system. Means are provided for the host computer to read data from the array of hard disk drives in the CD ROM format that the data had been stored in on the CD ROM. Means are also available to implement RAID technology with the array of hard disk drives for data reconstruction, striping, and redundancy. Means may be provided for the host computer to communicate directly with any SCSI devices connected to the server.
