Abstract
A storage apparatus managing method applied to a first storage apparatus and a second storage apparatus coupled to the electronic apparatus is disclosed. The first storage apparatus includes a local registering region and a global registering region. The storage apparatus managing method includes: when the global registering region does not have a target data unit, reading the target data unit from the local registering region or from the second storage apparatus; and copying the target data unit to the global registering region. When the target data unit is copied to the global registering region, the target data unit is copied to a global registering buffer region, or otherwise in response to the global registering buffer region not having enough space, the target data unit is copied to a global registering file region.
