An object of the invention is to provide a transfer system, initiator device, and data transfer method that can improve data transfer-related performance by fully utilizing a high-speed interface even when transferring data between devices that execute data processing at different speed. The invention provides a transfer system including: an initiator device, plural target devices, and a switch for switching data transfer targets between the initiator device and target devices, wherein either the initiator device or the target devices are connected to the switch via a high-speed interface and the other is connected to the switch via a low-speed interface, and the initiator device has a control unit for determining the data transfer length of data transferred to a first target device in the target devices according to the status of data transfer to the other target device(s) when transferring data between the initiator device and the first target device.
