ABSTRACT:
Distributed management information for management of a predetermined unit of data is stored in a redundant area of respective blocks of a flash memory, whereas collected management information for all-at-once management of the data is stored in a predetermined block of the flash memory. When using the flash memory, it is determined whether the collected management information has an error. If any error is detected, collected management information is created from the distributed management information in the redundant area of the respective blocks. If the aforementioned data is modified, the collected management information is re-created according to the distributed management information of the redundant area of the respective blocks so that the collected management information is stored in the aforementioned predetermined block.
