Abstract
According to one embodiment, a memory system includes nonvolatile memories each storing data and an address table for acquiring an address of the data, and a control unit which is configured to be capable of accessing the nonvolatile memories in parallel, and issues table read requests for reading the address tables and data read requests for reading the data to the nonvolatile memories in response to read commands from a host. When a table read request and a data read request are issued to a same nonvolatile memory, the control unit processes the data read request in priority to the table read request.
