Embodiment Construction

[0037] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0038] Figure 5 It is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a logic unit of a mass storage device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the method, the mass storage device is connected to the host computer through a USB interface, the method comprising: in response to adding new logical units to the mass storage device and / or removing existing logical units therefrom, on the mass storage device Dynamically manage (modify) a logical unit table associated with a logical unit and generate a corresponding hot plug event; and notify the host computer of the hot plug event.

[0039] Such as Figure 5 As shown, in step S501, it is detected whether a new logical unit is added to the mass storage device or an existing logical unit is removed. In step S502, in response to the addition or removal, the logical unit table is dynami...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for controlling a logic cell of a high-capacity storage apparatus, the high-capacity storage apparatus, a high-capacity storage apparatus driver and a high-capacity storage system, wherein the high-capacity storage apparatus is connected to a master computer through a USB interface. The method comprises: responding to the addition and / or deletion of a logic unit; dynamically managing a logic unit list associated with the logic unit and generating corresponding hot plug events on the large-capacity storage apparatus; and notifying the hot plug events to the master computer. In the invention, the plug and play of the logic unit is realized through dynamically managing the logic unit and generating the corresponding hot plug events as well as notifying the events to the master computer.

Description
