Abstract

A method of operating a mobile device including an embedded storage having a first capacity includes recognizing, in an application processor of the mobile device, that an external storage is connected to the mobile device, and measuring a performance of the external storage in the application processor of the mobile device. When the performance is equal to or greater than a reference value, the embedded storage and the external storage are constituted into one parallel processing storage, and workload is allocated by memory control module of the application processor to the embedded storage and the external storage based on a first performance of the embedded storage and a second performance of the external storage.
