- the removable media drive that has received the sleep return command from the host computer (S33) returns from the sleep mode state to the normal operation mode (S34).
- FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing a specific configuration example of the computer system of the present embodiment.
- 1 is a personal computer as a host computer
- 2 is a CD-ROM drive as a removable media
- 3 is a CD-ROM drive 2
- 4 is a removable medium.
- 5 is a drive control unit that controls command issuance and data transmission / reception to and from CD-ROM drive 2 built in or external to PC 1
- 6 is control by drive control unit 5.
- the CPU 7 that performs the calculation at the time is an IZF cable that connects the CD-ROM drive 2 and the personal computer 1, and is used for sending and receiving commands and data.
- the personal computer 1 puts the CD-ROM drive 2 into the sleep mode when the CD-ROM drive 2 is not used for a long time. More specifically, a sleep command issued from the drive control unit 5 causes the CD-ROM control unit 3 to put the CD-ROM drive 2 into the sleep mode. In the sleep mode, the CD-ROM drive 2 cannot receive the command! /, So that the personal computer 1 does not issue a polling command to detect the insertion of a medium. For this reason, issuing the polling command normally saves the power consumed by the CPU 6.
- the SZW 4 detects it and the CD-ROM control unit 3 asserts the INTRQ signal (interrupt signal) of the IZF cable 7.
- the drive control unit 5 issues a sleep return command to the CD-ROM drive 2. This is explained using interrupt signals. If the host can recognize that the state of the drive has changed, it is not necessary that the signal be a signal. Absent.
- the CD-ROM control unit 3 Upon receiving the sleep return command, the CD-ROM control unit 3 also returns the CD-ROM drive 2 to the sleep mode. After this, the computer 1 resumes polling the CD-ROM drive 2 that has entered the normal operation mode, and can detect that media has been inserted and start the application.
- the power described in the example of the CD-ROM drive is not used for normal polling. Even in the case of a removable media drive, the mode is positively shifted to the sleep mode and the user mode is changed. Performing control to return from the sleep state when media is inserted or ejected is effective as a power saving measure for all removable media drives.
- the power sleep mode which is a mechanism for notifying the host when an event of media insertion or ejection occurs in the drive power sleep mode. If necessary, it may be notified when these events occur in the normal power mode. Also, the type of event to be notified is not limited to media insertion and ejection operations, etc., and is used when the drive alerts the host, for example, when notifying that the drive has completed some processing. Even if it does not work.
- FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a method of event notification other than in the sleep mode.
- the host stops polling by issuing a command to the drive. Even in the normal power state, the drive continues to check whether an event to be notified to the host has occurred (S35, S36). If an event occurs, the drive notifies the host of an interrupt signal or specific packet data. (S37). Upon receiving the notification from the drive (S38), the host issues an event confirmation command to the drive to confirm the type of event (S39). Upon receiving the event confirmation command (S40), the drive returns data for notifying the host of the event to the host (S41).
- the host that has also received the drive input (S42) has confirmed the type of the event from the event data, and executes processing suitable for the event, such as issuing a specific command to the drive (S43). This makes it possible to abolish command polling on the host side even in a mode other than the power saving mode.
- a media drive, a computer system, and a media drive control method can detect insertion and ejection of a removable medium into and from a media drive in a sleep mode, which is a power-saving operation mode, and can also detect a media drive and a host computer. Power consumption can be further reduced, and can be applied to a media drive and a computer system having a sleep mode.
