Abstract
A storage controller, when writing n sets of data into a first storage device, adds dummy data to other sets of data except for a first set of data having a largest size among the n sets of data such that sizes of other sets of data become equal to the size of the first set of data, calculates (n−1) parities based on the first set of data and the other sets of data, and when reading the n sets of data from the first storage device, concurrently performs a processing of reading a second set of data having a smallest size among the n sets of data from the first storage device and a processing of restoring each of two or more sets of data in the n sets of data except for the second set of data, by using the (n−1) parities and the dummy data.
