Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a nonvolatile semiconductor storage device, a memory, and a processor. The processor is configured to exert control in such a manner that, when the nonvolatile semiconductor storage device is notified of deleted file data and a trim command is to be executed, even if an operation on file data stored in the nonvolatile semiconductor storage device is performed in the state in which the operation state of the image forming apparatus is set to the power-saving state, the trim command is not executed on the nonvolatile semiconductor storage device in accordance with the operation performed on file data.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a solid-state drive and a processor configured to perform a process to resume supplying power to the solid-state drive after an elapse of a waiting time period if a request to resume supplying power to the solid-state drive is received within a rated time period from a start of a power shutoff to the solid-state drive.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes transmitting/receiving sections, response processing sections, a determining section, and a controller. The transmitting/receiving sections transmit and receive data. The response processing sections correspond to the transmitting/receiving sections in a one-to-one relationship. A state of each response processing section is switchable between a first state and second state. The determining section determines priorities of state transition processes for the response processing sections.

Abstract: The present invention provides an information processing apparatus including: a first control section that, when execution of printing at a printing device connected via a communications section is instructed, performs control to display at a display section a print settings screen for making settings relating to the printing; a calculation section that calculates an estimated value of power consumption that the printing device will consume if the printing is executed on the basis of the settings relating to printing; and a second control section that, when a pre-specified operation is performed at the print settings screen, performs control to display the estimated value of power consumption and display at the display section an energy saving settings screen for making, of the settings relating to printing, settings relating to energy saving.

Abstract: A storage system includes: N pieces of storages that stores electronic information, N being an integral number that is two or more; and a controller that obtains electronic information to be written, wherein the controller, in a case where the electronic information to be written is a first kind of electronic information, divides the electronic information to be written into N pieces, and independently writes the divided electronic information into each of the N pieces of storage, and the controller, in the electronic information to be written is a second kind of electronic information, redundantly writes the electronic information to be written into each of the N pieces of storage.
