Abstract

A file control system performing DMA (direct memory access) transfer is provided. The file control system includes file control devices, and each of the file control devices is provided between a host computer and an external storage device. A first file control device among the file control devices checks for errors in the data read from a memory, changes the error detection code added to the read data from a first error detection code to a second error detection code, changes at least a part of the data when an error is detected, and executes DMA-transfer of the data, which is changed or is not changed, to a second file control device of the transfer destination.
