Claims20
An information storage apparatus, comprising:
- a memory unit;
- a first controller that reads data from the memory unit;
- and
- a second controller included in the memory unit that reads a first identification and outputs the first identification in response to an external instruction, wherein the first identification may only be read by the second controller.
An information storage method performed by an information storage apparatus, the method comprising:
- reading, by a first controller of the information storage apparatus, data from a memory unit of the information storage apparatus;
- reading, by a second controller included in the memory unit, a first identification;
- and
- outputting, by the second controller, the first identification in response to an external instruction, wherein the first identification may only be read by the second controller.
One or more non-tangible computer readable medium including computer program instructions, which when executed by a first controller and a second controller, cause the first and second controllers to perform a method comprising:
- reading, by the first controller, data from a memory unit;
- reading, by the second controller included in the memory unit, a first identification;
- and
- outputting, by the second controller, the first identification in response to an external instruction, wherein the first identification may only be read by the second controller.
