Abstract
Power consumption required for making a nonvolatile storage device having a radio communication function operate as a file server for a radio host device is great for a host device which supplies the power. The present invention enables a user to operate a host device to which the nonvolatile storage device having the radio communication function is attached so as to activate and inactivate the radio communication function of the nonvolatile storage device. This reduces unnecessary power consumption by the radio communication function.
