Abstract: A storage control device includes a processor that reads out a group write area, in which data blocks are arranged, from a storage medium and store the group write area in a buffer area. The processor releases a part of the payload area for each data block arranged in the first group write area stored in the first buffer area. The part stores invalid data. The processor performs the garbage collection by performing data refilling. The data refilling is performed by moving valid data stored in the payload to fill up a front by using the released part, and updating an offset included in a header stored in a header area at a position indicated by index information corresponding to the moved valid data without changing the position indicated by the index information corresponding to the moved valid data. The header area is included in the data block.
