Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus including a region detection unit configured to detect a region that satisfies a predetermined condition among a plurality of regions included in a data storage apparatus, and a refresh processing unit configured to skip refresh with respect to the region that satisfies the predetermined condition when performing refresh processing on the plurality of regions.

Abstract: There is provided an information processing apparatus including a region detection unit configured to detect a region that satisfies a predetermined condition among a plurality of regions included in a data storage apparatus, and a refresh processing unit configured to skip refresh with respect to the region that satisfies the predetermined condition when performing refresh processing on the plurality of regions.

Abstract: There is provided a control device including, a reading and writing control unit configured to control writing and reading of data on and from a non-volatile memory that has a plurality of blocks each set to be a unit for performing erasure of data. The non-volatile memory stores order information indicating an order of the blocks in which data is to be written. The reading and writing control unit selects a writing target block that is a target block for writing of data according to the order indicated by the order information, and writes data in the selected writing target block.

Abstract: There is provided a memory management device including a non-volatile memory that performs writing and reading of data on a per-page basis, and performs erasing on a per-block basis, and a control unit that manages a data process in the non-volatile memory by performing logical-physical translation on a per-translation unit (TU) basis, and performs a fold process. The control unit sets data of a physical TU corresponding to unnecessary logical TU information to be excluded from a copy target in the fold process based on the unnecessary logical TU information, the unnecessary logical TU information being notified of by a file system and representing a logical TU corresponding to a physical TU in which unnecessary data is physically written.

Abstract: There is provided a management device including a management unit that manages a nonvolatile memory configured to allow data to be written, read, or erased electrically, allow writing and reading to be performed in units of a page, and allow erasing to be performed in units of a block including a plurality of pages. The management unit divides a plurality of physical blocks of the nonvolatile memory into a virtual area including virtual blocks corresponding to the physical blocks, and an alternate area including alternate blocks for replacing defective physical blocks in the virtual area, manages the nonvolatile memory in management units of three stages including management of the physical blocks, management of the virtual blocks, and management of extended blocks, and writes to the nonvolatile memory first, second, and third management information for use in the management of the physical blocks, the virtual blocks, and the extended blocks, respectively.

Abstract: An administration device includes an administration section. The administration section administers writing, reading, and erasing of data in a nonvolatile memory, in which the data can be electrically written, read, and erased and the writing and the reading are performed on a page-by-page basis and the erasing is performed on a block-by-block basis, by translating a logical address into a physical address on a per translation unit basis; and performs fold processing of increasing unwritten physical translation units by the number of written invalid physical translation units, which are contained in a block of a copy source, by copying data of written valid physical translation units among the contents of the block into a block, in which the unwritten physical translation units reside, and by erasing the block of the copy source.
