Abstract

A data storage device includes a memory including a plurality of memory banks, a data storage processor that initially arranges data in the plurality of memory banks based on an access pattern including a plurality of desired pixels of data to be read simultaneously so as to store pixels of data between access candidates constituting the access pattern in an identical memory bank, and a data read and storage processor that reads the data initially arranged in the plurality of memory banks of the memory. The data read and storage processor reads a pixel of data from a memory bank, and stores the read pixel of data in a memory bank in which pixels of data in an adjacent range defined in ranges, which are defined by locations of the access candidates of the access pattern, based on a direction in which the access pattern is moved.
