Abstract
Systems and methods for storing information to allow users to manage files are provided. One method embodiment comprises determining whether there is communication between a storage device and a first appliance; determining whether the storage device has any information stored in it, if there is communication; and generating the information, if there is no information stored on the storage device, the information comprising the type of an initial modification made to a file.
Claims45
A method for storing information to allow users to manage files, comprising:
- determining whether there is communication between a storage device and a first appliance;
- determining whether the storage device has any information stored in it, if there is communication;
- and
- generating the information, if there is no information stored on the storage device, the information comprising the type of an initial modification made to a file.
A system for storing information to allow users to manage files, comprising:
- means for determining whether there is communication between a storage device and a first appliance;
- means for determining whether the storage device has any information stored in it, if there is communication;
- and
- means for generating the information, if there is no information stored on the storage device, the information comprising the type of an initial modification made to a file.
A computer program for storing information to allow users to manage files stored on a computer-readable medium, the computer program comprising:
- logic configured to determine whether there is communication between a storage device and a first appliance;
- logic configured to determine whether the storage device has any information stored in it, if there is communication;
- and
- logic configured to generate the information, if there is no information stored on the storage device, the information comprising the type of an initial modification made to a file.
A system for storing information to allow users to manage files, comprising:
- a memory module configured to determine whether there is communication between a storage device and a first appliance;
- a memory module configured to determine whether the storage device has any information stored in it, if there is communication;
- and
- a memory module configured to generate the information, if there is no information stored on the storage device, the information comprising the type of an initial modification made to a file.
