Abstract
According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus includes a connector to which a storage device is connectable. The apparatus includes a power supply circuit which supplies power to the storage device via one or more power pins of the connector. The first pin of the connector is set to a first electric potential or an open state based on a power supply capability of the power supply circuit. A state of the first pin which is set to the first electric potential indicates that a maximum power supplied from the power supply circuit to the storage device via the one or more power pins of the connector is a first power. A state of the first pin which is set to the open state indicates that the maximum power is a second power.
