Abstract

The invention discloses an electronic device and a control method thereof. The electronic device comprises a mainboard, a plurality of hard disk ports, at least one fan, a basic input and output module and a substrate management controller. The plurality of hard disk ports are configured on the mainboard and used for being connected with a plurality of hard disks in a coupling mode. The fan is configured on the mainboard and used for conducting heat dissipation on the plurality of hard disks. The basic input and output module is configured on the mainboard and used for detecting the number of the hard disks which are connected with the plurality of hard disk ports in a coupling mode. The substrate management controller is configured on the mainboard and used for obtaining the number of the hard disks which are connected with the plurality of hard disk ports in a coupling mode from the basic input and output module and controlling the rotation speed of the fan used for conducting heat dissipation on the hard disks according to the number of the hard disks.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a control method, and particularly relates to a control method of an electronic device. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, the motherboard of an electronic device is equipped with multiple fans to assist the motherboard to dissipate heat, and different areas are dissipated by different fans. For example, a specific fan on the motherboard is responsible for dissipating heat from the hard disk drive (HDD). In the prior art, the fan responsible for the heat dissipation of the hard disk runs at a predetermined specific rotation speed. Because the hard disk generates a large amount of heat, it generally runs at a high speed. [0003] However, in the actual test and testing process, the applicant found that: using the fan speed control method of the prior art, only when the number of hard disks on the motherboard is the standard configuration, the overall power consumption and heat dissipation efficiency of the elect...
