Abstract:
1. A method for managing redundant arrays of independent disks (RAID) cards, the method comprising: detecting a number of the RAID cards of a mother board; calculating a theoretical percentage of a load of each RAID card according to the number of the RAID cards; loading an actual percentage of the load of each RAID card through a multi input output (MIO) interface, and detecting a peripheral component interconnect-express (PCI-E) bandwidth of each RAID card; transferring the load from a RAID card having a greater actual percentage of the load into a RAID card having a less actual percentage of the load until the load of each RAID card is balanced; and transferring the load from a RAID card whose PCI-E bandwidth is saturated into a RAID card whose PCI-E bandwidth is unsaturated according to differential signals through the MIO interface.
