The hybrid storage unit includes a first storage unit and a second storage unit. The second storage unit includes a first storage area and a second storage area. If a relationship between the electronic apparatus and an external apparatus is detected as being an undocked relationship, the first storage unit is disabled by a controller of the hybrid storage unit, and the second storage area serves to simulate and replace the first storage unit. The controller reports a storage unit status change notification to an operating system, so as to allow the operating system to re-enumerate the hybrid storage unit.
