1. A method for controlling startup of a hard disk drive system, the hard disk drive system comprises two or more hard disk drives, wherein the method comprising:
latching the initialization states of all the hard disk drives after all hard disk drives are powered on;
dividing all hard disk drives into two or more hard drive groups, each hard drive group comprises more than one hard disk drive; and
sequentially performing link initialization negotiation on each hard drive group by using a port protocol; and in an Out-Of-Band (OOB) negotiation process of the link initialization negotiation, by setting the state of a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) application layer power state machine, controlling a motor of each hard disk drive in the hard drive group to enter a spinning state.
