Abstract
In an information processing device serving as a PCIe system including a host device and a plurality of memory devices, one of the plurality of memory devices is defined as a master memory. The other memory devices are defined as slave memories, and are logically coupled to the master memory. The plurality of memory devices thus constitute a single virtual storage. When accessing is performed from a root complex to the plurality of memory devices constituting the single virtual storage, the root complex hands over a bus master to the master memory. The master memory receives a command regarding the accessing from the root complex, changes address information used for the accessing in the command regarding the accessing, based on a logical relationship with the slave memories, and sends changed command regarding the accessing to the slave memories.
