  2. C2 error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C2_error

    A CD drive can have extraction errors when the data on the disc is not readable due to scratches or smudges. The drive can compensate by supplying a "best guess" of what the missing data was, then supplying the missing data.

  3. Error detection and correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_detection_and_correction

    A CRC has properties that make it well suited for detecting burst errors. CRCs are particularly easy to implement in hardware and are therefore commonly used in computer networks and storage devices such as hard disk drives. The parity bit can be seen as a special-case 1-bit CRC.

    Upon inserting such a disc in the CD drive of a computer running Microsoft Windows, the XCP software would be installed. If CD ripper software (or other software, such as a real-time effects program, that reads digital audio from the disc in the same way as a CD ripper) were to subsequently access the music tracks on the CD, XCP would ...

    Requires the user to enter CD-code (or reads embedded CD-code) that describes geometry of CD to correctly locate data on the disc. SafeDisc (versions 1–5) Adds unique digital signature at the time of manufacturing which is designed to be difficult to copy or transfer so that software is able to detect copied media. SafeCast

    The design of the 32-bit polynomial most commonly used by standards bodies, CRC-32-IEEE, was the result of a joint effort for the Rome Laboratory and the Air Force Electronic Systems Division by Joseph Hammond, James Brown and Shyan-Shiang Liu of the Georgia Institute of Technology and Kenneth Brayer of the Mitre Corporation.

  8. List of RAM drive software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_RAM_drive_software

    Some RAM drives when used with 32-bit operating systems (particularly 32-bit Microsoft Windows) on computers with IBM PC architecture allow memory above the 4 GB point in the memory map, if present, to be used; this memory is unmanaged and not normally accessible. [2] Software using unmanaged memory can cause stability problems.
