A memory system has a non-volatile memory, an error corrector, an error information storage, and an access controller. The non-volatile memory comprising a plurality of memory cells. The error corrector to correct an error included in data read from the non-volatile memory. The error information storage, based on an error rate when a predetermined number or more of data is written in the non-volatile memory and read therefrom, to store first information on whether there is an error in the written data, on whether there is an error correctable by the error corrector in the written data, and on whether there is an error uncorrectable by the error corrector in the written data. The access controller, based on the first information, to control at least one of reading from or writing to the non-volatile memory.
