Abstract

A computer system with a small circuit area and reduced power consumption is used. The computer system includes a computer node including a processor and a three-dimensional NAND memory device. The three-dimensional NAND memory device includes a first string and a second string in different blocks. The first string includes a first memory cell, and the second string includes a second memory cell. On reception of first data and a signal including an instruction to write the first data, the controller writes the first data to the first memory cell. Then, the controller reads the first data from the first memory cell and writes the first data to the second memory cell. Thus, the computer node can eliminate a main memory such as a DRAM from the structure.
