Abstract

A data storage device includes a memory used to store device identification information, wherein the data storage device is operable to communication with an electronic device to receive the device identification information sent from the electronic device and to store the device identification information in the memory, and wherein the data storage device is operable to provide a hardware-switching device with the device identification information from the memory. A method for identifying multiple electronic devices includes providing, for each electronic device, a corresponding data storage device communicating with a hardware-switching device and storing device identification information related to each electronic device in the corresponding data storage device. Furthermore, in relation to communication between the data storage device and the hardware-switching device, the hardware-switching device receiving corresponding device identification information, so as to identify a corresponding electronic device based on the device identification information received by the hardware-switching device.
