The body 12 , the processing unit 14 , and the light emitting unit 13 are received in the housing 11 . 14 can drive the light-emitting unit 13 to emit light in a specific mode. More specifically, the processing unit 14 of each solid-state hard disk 10 can control the light-emitting frequency, the light-emitting color, the light-emitting delay time, and the blinking pattern of the light-emitting unit 13; The light-emitting unit 13 preferably includes at least one light-emitting diode 131. More preferably, each of the light-emitting units 13 further includes at least one light guide 132 adjacent to the light-emitting diode 131 and partially exposed. In addition, the light of the light-emitting diode 131 is transmitted through the light guide 132. Preferably, each of the light-emitting units 13 includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes 131, and the colors of the light-emitting diodes 131 are opposite to each other. The light-emitting units 13 are collectively arranged as a light-emitting module 101. Preferably, the light-emitting units 13 are adjacent to each other. Further, each of the solid-state hard disks 10 also has a connector of a general practitioner or the like. An application 21 is installed in the mobile electronic device 20, and the application 21 can send signals to the processing units 14 of the solid state drives 10 to be paired and identified with the solid state drives 10. And the processing unit 14 controls the illumination unit 13 to emit light, so that the illumination module 101 emits light in a specific mode. Preferably, each processing unit 14 receives the signal from the mobile electronic device 20 and causes the illumination unit 13 to be illuminated. The specific illumination pattern is repeated in a cyclic manner.

In actual use, the solid state hard disks 10 can be purchased and assembled by the user. Each processing unit 14 of the solid state hard disk 10 has some specific lighting patterns built in before or a plurality of elements that can be combined (for example, a single The duration of the secondary illumination, the interval between the two illuminations, the color of the illumination, the intensity of the illumination, the frequency of the flicker, the delay time to start the illumination, etc., when the solid state hard disks 10 are installed, the user can act by An application 21 (which can be produced by a manufacturer of solid state drives and provided to a user) installed in the electronic device 20 (for example, a mobile electronic device such as a smart phone or a tablet), via a wireless, remote method (for example, Bluetooth communication) The infrared processing unit 14 (which must have a device for receiving signals, such as a Bluetooth receiver, an infrared receiver, etc.) sends a signal to cause the processing unit 14 to further control the illumination unit 13 The lighting mode, more specifically, the application 21 provides a simple interface for the user to select one of the preset specific lighting modes, for example, The application detects that there are three solid-state hard disks, which is convenient for displaying the illumination modes of all three solid-state hard disk combinations on the interface. It is also assumed that the user selects "each light-emitting unit flashes three times in one second without any Interval, cycle this mode, and the application actually sends a "delay time of 0, one second flashes three times, two light intervals of 2 seconds" to the first solid state hard disk, the second A solid-state hard disk emits an indication of "1 second delay, three flashes per second, and 2 seconds between two illuminations". The third solid-state drive emits a "delay time of 2 seconds, one second of flashing three times, and two illuminations." The indication of the interval of 2 seconds", the combination of the illumination of the three illumination units causes the illumination module to assume a particular illumination pattern.

The last section only shows an example of the mechanism by which the application controls the lighting mode of the lighting module. However, it is not limited to this. The application can also provide a custom interface to allow the user to design a unique lighting mode, or even a coloring interface. Controlling the illuminating color of the illuminating unit (the actual mechanism is to control whether the illuminating diodes of the different colors are different), and may have other additional convenient functions, such as a voice-activated illuminating mode.

In summary, the solid-state hard disk illumination control system provided by the illumination can be used by the user to adjust the illumination mode of the illumination module at will, and can provide various illumination modes even if the number of solid state hard disks is different, and even available The user designs the lighting mode and color by himself, and purchases the same solid state hard disk to achieve the customized lighting mode, which is very advanced.
