Abstract

According to one embodiment, a memory system perform a first write operation for writing data to a non-volatile memory by a first write method for writing multi-bit information per memory cell. When a power loss event occurs while the data is written, the memory system calculates a remaining time period required to complete write of an unwritten portion of the data. When the remaining time period is longer than a time period required to write the whole of the data by a second write method for writing one-bit information per memory cell, the memory system performs a second write operation for writing the whole of the data by the second write method in place of the first write operation.
