Abstract
A storage device includes a first memory to which data can be written a plurality of times and a second memory that includes storage elements for which electrical characteristics can be changed only once. The first memory storing first encryption key information and the second memory storing second encryption key information. A controller generated an encryption key using the first encryption key information and the second encryption key information in combination and then encrypts and decrypts data written or read from the first memory. When a host requests an encryption erase, the controller attempts to erase the first encryption key information from the first memory. If the requested erase fails, the controller erases the second encryption key information from the second nonvolatile memory.
