Electronic device and electronic device control method

Abstract

Provided is an electronic device such as a storage apparatus coping with, with a simple configuration, a situation where data transfer cannot be performed because of an occurrence of an abnormality in the connection using a connector or the like, at the time of occurrence of a shock due to an earthquake or the like. The present invention is applied to an electronic device in which a drive that stores data and a control board having disposed thereon a controller that controls data transfer between the drive and another apparatus are connected via a connector. The electronic device includes: an acceleration sensor; and a vibration sensing processing section that controls a state of communication between the drive and the controller to temporarily stop data transfer performed by the drive, for a period during which a possibility of occurrence of an ongoing abnormality exists in the connection using the connector or the like, when the acceleration sensor has sensed an acceleration of exceeding an upper-limit threshold, and causes the temporarily stopped data transfer to resume when the acceleration sensor has sensed an acceleration of equal to or lower than a lower-limit threshold.
