Abstract
A server system and a control method thereof are provided. The server system includes a first computing module, a power distribution board (PDB) module, a first storage apparatus, and a second storage apparatus. The PDB module is connected to the first computing module and is configured to distribute the power of the server system. The first storage apparatus and the second storage apparatus are connected to the PDB module. After finishing a boot operation, the first computing module determines whether a second computing module connected to the PDB module is present, such that the first computing module controls the PDB module to select and distribute the first storage apparatus and the second storage apparatus to the first computing module and the second computing module. Therefore, the server system can achieve different data access applications in the server system by only using a general-purpose PDB module.
