发明名称 REMOTE ACCESS TO AN INTERNAL STORAGE COMPONENT OF AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE VIA AN EXTERNAL PORT
摘要 A computing device allows remote access to internal storage component via a remote access interface, e.g., USB, port. The electronic device or computing device contains a motherboard with modified internal circuitry that allows access to the internal storage component via the remote access port. Bus arbitration circuitry, within the motherboard of the computing device, arbitrates between a host CPU and the remote access interface port. Power arbitration circuitry, within the motherboard of the computing device, arbitrates between an internal power supply and power available at the remote access port. The bus arbitration and power arbitration are based upon a predetermined rules as well as an intelligent adaptive set of rules. Internal storage component access is provided based on authorization rules. The internal storage component may be accessed by an external processing circuitry even when the electronic device or computing device is powered down or not in working condition.
