Abstract
According to one embodiment, a storage device management device is connected to a random access memory and a first storage device. When the random access memory includes a free region sufficient to store write data, the write data is stored onto the random access memory. Data on the random access memory selected in the descending order of elapsed time from the last access is sequentially copied onto the first storage device, and a region in the random access memory which has stored the copied data is released. When stored on the random access memory, the read data is read from the random access memory to the processor. When stored on the first storage device, the read data is copied onto the random access memory and read from the random access memory to the processor.
