A controller configured to control memory chips in communication with the controller is provided. The controller comprises: a host interface configured to receive a request from a host; an address mapper configured to, upon receipt of both a turbo write request for writing data to one or more high-speed storage blocks at a high speed to and a normal write request for writing data to one or more storage blocks at a lower speed, allocate a first plane including a memory block configured to perform write operations in a single level cell mode at the high speed to a first plane group in order to respond to the turbo write request, and allocate a second plane to a second plane group at the slower speed in order to respond to the normal write request; and a memory interface configured to control the memory chips.
