Abstract

See full text

The present invention not only reduces the load but also enhances the accuracy of de-duplication in a storage apparatus which performs in-line de-duplication processing and post-process de-duplication processing. A storage apparatus comprises a storage device and a controller. The controller receives multiple files, and by performing in-line de-duplication processing under a prescribed condition, detects from among the multiple files a file which is duplicated with a file received in the past, stores in the temporary storage area a file other than the detected file of the multiple files, and partitions the stored file into multiple chunks, and by performing post-process de-duplication processing, detects from among the multiple chunks a chunk which is duplicated with a chunk received in the past, and stores in the transfer-destination storage area a chunk other than the detected chunk of the multiple chunks.
