Method for distinguishing input / output hub serial hard disk and electronic equipment

This application discloses a method and electronic device for distinguishing serial hard drives in an input / output hub, relating to the field of server storage technology. The method involves first acquiring the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) device information of the serial hard drive to be identified (including manufacturer identifier, device identifier, and bus device function address indicating its physical location), and simultaneously acquiring the identifier of the input / output hub (IOH) controller (including manufacturer identifier, device identifier, and the address range of the IOH in the PCI topology). By comparing these two types of information, the control unit to which the hard drive belongs is determined. If the hard drive belongs to the IOH controller, it indicates that its interface is an IOH SATA type directly associated with the IOH. If it does not belong to the IOH controller, it can be excluded as an IOH SATA hard drive, pointing to an M.2 SATA interface type. This method bypasses the consistent SATA protocol of both, utilizing the difference in physical connection and control affiliation to achieve accurate differentiation of interface types.
