Abstract:
Management information is provided to control a storage including storage-areas so that each storage-area includes a set of data-areas allocated from each storage-area and each set of data-areas has a data-area size that is a different integer multiple of an access unit of the storage. Logical address information stores information identifying a data-area into which target-data obtained by compressing data has been written, in association with a logical address of the data. Upon reception of the data and the logical address of the data, the apparatus identifies the management information corresponding to a data-area size greater than or equal to a size of the target-data, writes the target-data into an unused data-area of one of the sets of data-areas corresponding to the identified management information, and stores, in the logical address information, information identifying a physical address of the unused data-area in association with the logical address of the data.

Claim (Index 4):
The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein:\n each of the first and second sets of data areas forms consecutive data areas; the first identification information of the first management information includes a physical address identifying a first head data area that is a data area positioned at a head of the first set of data areas, a first ordinal number that is a n ordinal number of each data area from the head data area within the first set of data areas, and the first size; the second identification information of the second management information includes a physical address identifying a second head data area that is a data area positioned at a head of the second set of data areas, a second ordinal number of each data area from the second head data area within the second set of data areas, and the second size; the logical address information stores the target management information, an ordinal number of an data area, into which the target data has been written, from a target head data area that is a data area positioned at a head of the target set of data areas, and a logical address of the write data, in association with each other; and when logical management information that is one of the first and second management information corresponding to a logical address of the target data in the logical address information is identical to the target management information, the processor writes the target data into a target data area that is a data area indicated by the ordinal number corresponding to the logical address of the write data in the logical address information among the target set of data areas.
