Abstract

A data storage system is disclosed having a plurality of terminal apparatuses of users connected with a data storage unit of a service provider via a computer network, the data storage unit storing data from inside the terminal apparatuses so that the stored data are subsequently used by the users. The data storage unit includes a connecting element, a file storing element, a file managing element, and a data format converting element. In response to a use request from any one of the users, the data format converting element converts stored data in the file storing element into a format compatible with the type of the terminal apparatus used by the requesting user for connection to the system. The converted data is used by the terminal apparatus through which the requesting user has sent the use request.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a data storage system for bringing data storage devices on a network for storing data from within a user's terminal device to make the stored data available to the user later. More particularly, the present invention relates to a data storage system for allowing various types of terminal devices to use data stored by the system. Background technique [0002] In recent years, so-called storage services have gained wide acceptance. This storage service enables terminal devices such as personal computers (PCs) owned by users to transmit their electronic data files to a storage server through a computer network. This storage service is used for various purposes including data backup and disclosure. That is, a copy of the data file from within the user's computer is retained by the storage service for the user's later use, or the file transmitted to the server is stored therein in a format that allows public download.
