METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONTROLLING HARD DRIVE POWER CONSUMPTION AND CONTROLLING A MANAGEMENT SERVICE OF HARD DRIVE POWER CONSUMPTION

摘要

A method and apparatus for controlling hard drive power consumption and controlling a hard drive power consumption management service are provided. The method includes detecting whether a fault exists in a hard drive in a node hard drive group. The method further includes, if there is no fault detected in the hard drive in the node hard drive group, controlling the hard drive in the node hard drive group to convert the hard drive between preset modes of power consumption by a hard drive power consumption management service.
