Problems solved by technology

[0003] As far as multiple independent ports are concerned, this form of hub cannot be managed, meaning that when a USB device is connected to a USB port, the USB device will automatically be detected by the operating system (Operation System, OS), and the application The program will pop up and display on the computer screen for the user to use
[0004] this can be problematic in some ways

Abstract

A management hub is disclosed. The management hub comprises an interface; a master hub controller coupled to the interface; a plurality of ports coupled to the master hub controller; a microcontroller coupled to the master hub controller; and hub setting switch and a slave hub controller coupled to the microcontroller and the plurality of ports. The management hub also includes a memory device coupled to the microcontroller, the memory device including a hidden drive information partition and a hidden drive organizer partition for managing and identifying information in various drives coupled to the plurality of ports, wherein when the management hub is first connected to a host system the drives are displayed in an inactive state.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to storage devices; more specifically, to management and identification of storage devices. Background technique [0002] In various environments, a plurality of memory devices need to be coupled to a host system so that the contents of the memory devices can be displayed on a screen of the host system. A storage device such as a USB device can be directly coupled to the host system via a connector. When multiple storage devices are to be connected to the main system, a hub is required. A typical hub is a standard four-port USB hub, but there are other types of hubs. [0003] As far as multiple independent ports are concerned, this form of hub is unmanageable, which means that when a USB device is connected to a USB port, the USB device is automatically detected by the Operating System (OS), and the application The program will pop up and display on the computer screen for the user to use. [0004] This can b...
