Abstract
A memory system includes a nonvolatile memory and a controller. The nonvolatile memory has first regions in which data writes and data reads can be executed in parallel. Each of the first regions has second regions which are each a data write/read unit. The controller acquires first values indicating a data write load for each of the first regions, detects a first region having a first value greater than or equal to a first threshold, acquires second values indicating a data write load for each of the plurality of second regions in the detected first region, detects a second region having a second value greater than or equal to a second threshold but less than or equal to a third threshold that is higher than the second threshold, and then move data from the detected second region to a second region in another first region.
