摘要： The storage control device of the present invention reduces the power consumption amount by stopping the transmission of power to enclosures that are not accessed. A plurality of additional enclosures is switch-connected via backend switches to a base enclosure. Drives that have not been accessed for a predetermined time or more undergo spin-down. When all of the drives in the enclosure enter a spin-down state, the supply of power from the power supply in the enclosure to the respective drives is stopped. The base enclosure that manages the system constitution of the storage control device turns OFF the switch connected to the enclosure when all of the drives in a certain enclosure have spun down. The transmission of power to this enclosure is accordingly stopped.

摘要： The storage control device of the present invention reduces power consumption by stopping the flow of power to enclosures that are not being accessed. A plurality of additional enclosures are connected to a base enclosure by means of a daisy-chain connection. The respective additional enclosures are divided into three levels, namely a low usage frequency level, a medium usage frequency level, and a high usage frequency level depending on the connection distance of the additional enclosures from the base enclosure. Drives that have not been accessed for a predetermined time are spun down. When all the drives in the enclosure are in the spin down state, the supply of power from the power supply to the respective drives is stopped. Further, when the flow of power to an additional enclosure located below the enclosure itself has stopped, the switch of the latter enclosure is turned OFF and the flow of power to the additional enclosure is stopped.

摘要： It is an object of the present invention to navigate connection among a controller housing and disk device housings which constitute a storage device. The controller housing, the disk device housings, and the like are stored in a storage device housing and are connected by ENC cables according to a typical connection method as preparation. A connection information file, which defines a connection state among respective connectors, is inputted to the controller housing. A controller lights or blinks LEDs of connectors, to which the ENC cables should be connected based on the connection information file, in a connection order. The controller navigates connection by sequentially lighting the LEDs of the connectors, which should be connected, in this way.

摘要： A memory section stores a plurality of electric power saving modes classified into groups by combining a plurality of electric power saving items in a television image receiver, a DVD or an LCD. Microcomputer controls one of the plurality of the electric power saving modes to be set to ON/OFF, thereby making it possible to ON/OFF control a plurality of electric power saving items included in that electric power saving mode includes all together. In accordance with this electric power saving mode, a dimming level of a backlight is decreased to a preset brightness or the backlight is automatically shut down.
