Abstract:
A storage control apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to execute a capacity expansion on a storage group including a plurality of storage devices, generate a plurality of first data storage regions in accordance with the number of storage devices within the storage group after the capacity expansion, and execute data rearrangement within the storage group after the capacity expansion for each of the plurality of first data storage regions.

Claim (Index 7):
The storage control apparatus according to  claim 3 ,\n wherein if the data stored in the plurality of second data storage regions is the user data, the processor determines the validity of the user data by migrating the user data stored in the plurality of second data storage regions within the storage group before the capacity expansion to the temporary storage region for each of the plurality of second data storage regions, wherein if the user data is valid, the processor reads the user data from the temporary storage region and writes the read user data to a first buffer, wherein the processor updates the first management data to be used to manage the physical addresses of the user data and writes the first management data after the update to a second buffer, wherein the processor updates the second management data to be used to manage the physical addresses of the first management data, and wherein the processor executes the data rearrangement within the storage group after the capacity expansion by writing the user data written to the first buffer back to the plurality of first data storage regions when the first buffer becomes full of the user data.
