ABSTRACT:
A storage control apparatus capable of rapidly carrying out data processing according to requests from upper order apparatus, and capable of rapidly returning the results of processing to the upper order apparatus is provided. A computer system comprised of upper order apparatus and storage control apparatus is disclosed. The upper order apparatus accesses a virtual volume. A pool volume is allocated to the virtual volume. The pool volume is provided with a storage region of storage discs. The pool volume classifies data sent from the upper order apparatus for every type into text data, block data, and large sized data. The storage control apparatus then recognizes the types of data and stores the data on respective volumes.
