ABSTRACT:
The control unit arbitrarily selects a disk unit among the disk units that are inactive when the control unit receives an input/output request involving either read or staging. For a write request, the control unit selects a master disk unit in the disk unit group for the immediate writing of data, and a disk unit other than the above-mentioned master disk is preferably selected to execute the read and staging unit. After writing is used to write the data into the other disk units after the write request execution is completed by writing to the master disk unit.
