Abstract
A method of determining a hard disk operation status is for determining an operation status of an electronic device which comprises a SGPIO port and a hard disk. The method comprises receiving an operation status raw signal of the hard disk through the SGPIO port, determining whether receiving a previous operation status raw signal of the hard disk has been performed before an operational period before receiving the operation status raw signal, generating an operation status adjusted signal according to the operation status raw signal of the hard disk and an enabled status signal of the SGPIO port when determining that receiving the previous operation status raw signal has not been performed before an operational period before receiving the operation status raw signal, and performing a delay procedure on the operation status adjusted signal according to a preset time interval to generate and output an operation status determined signal.
