The present invention controls supply of power to a storage device on the
basis of an access status, moves a logical storage device between
physical storage devices having different power supply modes, reduces
energization time, and improves the reliability. A relocation plan
creation portion creates a relocation plan by disposing a logical volume
with high access frequency in a RAID group which is in a long-time
energization mode, disposing a logical volume with moderate access
frequency in a RAID group which is in a first short-time energization
mode, and disposing a logical volume with low access frequency in a RAID
group which is in a second short-time energization mode. An execution
time determination portion determines an execution time for executing the
relocation plan, on the basis of the access frequency to the RAID groups.
The volumes with higher access frequency are disposed in the RAID group
in which the power supply time is long, and the volumes with lower access
frequency are disposed in the RAID group in which the power is supplied
in an on-demand fashion.
