Zusammenfassung:A storage apparatus includes: first storage devices; second storage devices that are lower in performance than the first storage devices; and a controller coupled to an external storage apparatus including third storage devices that are lower in reliability than the first storage devices and the second storage devices and coupled to the first storage devices and the second storage devices. The controller controls data migration between the first storage devices and the second storage devices based on an I/O frequency. When the total size of data stored for a predetermined period or more among data stored in the second storage devices is equal to or larger than a predetermined size threshold, the controller transmits the data stored in the second storage devices for the predetermined period or more, to the external storage apparatus.
