Abstract
A storage control device includes: a partial unit buffer configured to hold at least one data assigned to a partial unit, in which the partial unit is one of a plurality of partial units that are each a division of a write unit for a memory; and a request generation section configured to generate, upon indication of a busy state in the memory for any of the partial units, a write request for the write unit of the memory when the holding of the data assigned to that partial unit is possible in the partial unit buffer.
