Disclosed are a hard disk and a management method, so as to enable a cloud storage service system to manage a certain or some components in a storage device (mainly a hard disk). The above-mentioned hard disk comprises a manager, managed components and a communication interface, wherein the communication interface comprises a network interface and a management interface, and the managed components at least comprise a SOC; the manager is used for receiving an external management command through the management interface, processing the received external management command, executing an operation corresponding to the external management command on the corresponding managed component, and returning an operation result through the management interface; and the network interface is used for receiving an external read-write operation command. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present invention, the manager can manage the managed components, such as the SOC, according to the external management command, so that an external system or device (a cloud storage system or a cloud storage server) can manage a certain or some components in a storage device (mainly a hard disk) via the manager by issuing an external management command. |
