Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a memory system is configured to operate as one of semiconductor storage devices in a storage array. The memory system includes a nonvolatile memory and a controller. The controller executes a write operation of writing data, received from a host, to the nonvolatile memory, and an internal operation for managing the memory system. When starting the internal operation, the controller estimates a value related to an amount of reduction in performance of the write operation due to the start of the internal operation, based on content of the started internal operation, and notifies the host or one or more other semiconductor storage devices of the estimated value.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 13 , wherein\n the internal operation includes a garbage collection operation of the nonvolatile memory, a thermal protection operation for preventing excessive heating of the first memory system, and a power restriction operation for suppressing power consumption of the first memory system to be less than a maximum power allowed thereto; the executing the internal operation includes starting one of the garbage collection operation, the thermal protection operation and the power restriction operation, and the notifying includes notifying the second memory system of the estimated reduced write throughput or the estimated amount of reduction in the write throughput, and factor data indicating which one of the garbage collection operation, the thermal protection operation and the power restriction operation is a cause for the reduction in the write throughput.
