  • Patent number: 11573784
    Abstract: An electronic device for updating on-board data of power off status is provided, which combines a rewritable memory, an embedded controller, and a second network socket onto a motherboard. The rewritable memory includes a target storage area. The embedded controller includes a second network interface electrically connected to the second network socket, for receiving a writing command and a binary file. After receiving power of a standby mode, the embedded controller executes a data writing program to receive the writing command and the binary file via the second network socket and the second network interface, and writes the binary data file into the target storage area of the rewritable memory by using the data writing program.

  • Patent number: 8964371
    Abstract: A hard disk rack comprises a housing, a plurality of cartridges for receiving a plurality of hard disk modules, and at least one batten. The housing has a bottom, and a plurality of positioning elements disposed on the bottom at intervals. The cartridges are detachably disposed on the bottom in stacks by fastening a fastening portion to the positioning elements of the housing. The batten is pressed against the cartridges for sandwiching the cartridges between the batten and the bottom of the housing, and two opposite ends of the batten are connected to two opposite sidewalls of the housing detachably in order to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the cartridges conveniently.

  • Patent number: 7987354
    Abstract: Methods and systems for updating a source image file in a BIOS memory are provided. In one embodiment of the method, an initialization document is loaded to generate a first image file, and the initialization document comprises a function setting and first and second address information associated with the function setting, and the function setting represents whether a system locked pre-installation (SLP) 2.0 is supported. The initialization document is loaded to write an SLP mark and an OEM public key to the first image file according to the first and second address information, serving as a second image file. The second image file is written into the source image file in the BIOS memory.

  • Patent number: 7668976
    Abstract: A computer system comprising a memory module, a connection port, and a central processing unit (CPU) is disclosed. The memory module stores a main base input/output system (BIOS) comprising an auxiliary function. The connection port is capable of connecting an auxiliary module comprising at least one specific program. The CPU executes the main BIOS when the auxiliary function is de-activated. The CPU executes the specific program when the auxiliary function is activated.

  • Patent number: 7600110
    Abstract: A method for simulating IPMI using BIOS. A memory space is defined in a memory storing BIOS for storing a BMC module. The BIOS provides a setup menu comprising an enabling option for enabling or disabling a BMC function. It is determined whether the BMC function is enabled. If so, the BIOS detects and regards an error as an error message. The error message is stored in the memory space storing the BMC module and generating a system event log.
