Abstract
A storage device includes a nonvolatile memory device including a variable resistance memory, and a controller configured to control the nonvolatile memory device. At a booting operation, the controller stores booting information in the variable resistance memory of the nonvolatile memory device. At a rebooting operation, the controller selectively performs a warm boot operation using the booting information stored in the variable resistance memory, based on a comparison result between a booting setting condition associated with the booting operation and a rebooting condition associated with the rebooting operation.
