Abstract: A storage device, a directory entry lookup method for the storage device, and a host running the method can provide a quick directory entry lookup. The host includes an interface for exchanging data with the storage device which stores a multi-level hash table comprising directory entries of each directory, and a file system module receiving a file lookup command designating a target directory and a target filename, calculating a hash value which reflects the target filename and a lookup level, and searching for a directory entry which comprises the target filename in a bucket corresponding to the hash value from among buckets at the lookup level which are included in a multi-level hash table of the target directory. If the search for the directory entry fails, the file system module increases the lookup level and again calculates the hash value and searches for the directory entry for the target filename.
