A memory device includes a first memory area, a second memory area, a third memory area and a controller. The first memory area has a plurality of first memory cells sharing a first channel area. The second memory area has a plurality of second memory cells sharing the first channel area. The third memory area having a plurality of third memory cells sharing a second channel area, the second channel area being different from the first channel area, the first channel area and the second channel area being connected to a bit line. The controller is configured to input a voltage for the second memory cells to the second memory cells and a voltage for the third memory cells to the third memory cells, when a controlling operation is performed on the first memory cells, the voltages for the second and third memory cells having different magnitudes.
