Abstract: A storage device of an embodiment includes a voltage measurement unit that measures a voltage of power supplied from a host, a volatile memory, a non-volatile memory including a saving area and a normal area, a data compression and decompression unit, and a controller. The controller includes a power-supply voltage determining unit which compares the voltage measured by the voltage measurement unit to a predetermined threshold value, a data saving unit which writes compression user data obtained by compressing user data by the data compression and decompression unit in the saving area when the voltage is less than the predetermined threshold value and the user data is included in the volatile memory, and a data rewriting unit which writes the compression user data that is decompressed in the normal area when the compression user data is included in the saving area at the time of supplying the power.
