Wangsu Science and Technology Co. Ltd., Shanghai, China, has been assigned a patent (11,073,998) developed by Xie, Jiaxiang, Zhang, Xu, Zheng, Yajuan, and Pan, Zhihuai, Shanghai, China, for “method, apparatus for processing disk bad sector,and computer storage medium.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”The present disclosure discloses a method, apparatus for processing a disk bad sector, and a computer storage medium. The method includes: obtaining a target disk that is to be processed, and detecting bad sector data in the target disk, combining bad sector areas represented by the bad sector data, to obtain a usable area different from the bad sector areas in the target disk, and determining, according to a detection result, whether the target disk is usable, reconstructing storage space of the target disk based on the usable area if the target disk is usable, and setting an access parameter for the reconstructed storage space. The technical solutions provided by the present disclosure can improve processing efficiency of a faulty disk while saving a disk resource.”

The patent application was filed on July 9, 2019 (Appl. No.16/506,349).
