Abstract
When a power-saving period registered in device management information is reached, a processor of a storage control apparatus sets an operation mode of the corresponding storage device to a power-saving mode. In addition, the processor deletes identification information of data stored in a storage device whose power-saving period is registered in the device management information, from data management information in which identification information of data that could be copied to a cache from at least one access-destination storage device asynchronously with access by the host apparatus is registered.
