Abstract

An RPO algorithm in a HDD coalesces LBA-sequential XOR commands in pipes, and passes the pipes to a lower level execution engine. The execution engine executes XOR reads and write separately to optimize performance using head and/or cylinder skew information to approach the nominal disk data rate.
