Abstract

See full text

According to one embodiment, a memory system includes a nonvolatile memory and a controller. The controller reads write data associated with a first write command from a host memory by a unit of a first size in response to the first write command from a host. The host memory is included in the host. In a case where the size of first data not yet read from the host memory out of the write data is less than a second size, in response to a second write command, the controller reads second data of the second size and writes the read second data into the nonvolatile memory. The second data includes the first data and third data included in write data associated with the second write command. After writing the second data into the nonvolatile memory, the controller transmits a notice for the first write command to the host.
