According to one embodiment, a controller controls writing into and reading from a storage apparatus that includes a first data-storage unit and a second data-storage unit. The second data-storage unit stores user data and parity data of the user data. The first data-storage unit stores the parity data. The controller includes a parity updating unit and a parity writing unit. When parity data is updated, the parity updating unit writes the updated parity data into the first data-storage unit. When a certain requirement is satisfied, the parity writing unit reads the parity data written in the first data-storage unit, and writes the parity data thus read into the second data-storage unit.

A controller determines whether data stored in a first storing area should be flushed to a second storing area or a third storing area. When flushing of data in a track unit from at least one of the first storing area and the second storing area unit to the third storing area unit is determined, the controller collects data included in the flushed data in the track unit from at least one of the first storing area and the second storing area including the storing area from which the flushing of the data is determined, merges the flushed data and the collected data, and writes the merged data in the third storing area.
