A storage system comprises a plurality of flash packages comprising a plurality of flash chips, and a storage controller for receiving a first write request from a higher-level apparatus and sending a second write request of write data based on data conforming to this first write request to a write-destination flash package, and demonstrates a capacity virtualization function for causing a storage capacity to appear larger than an actual storage capacity for the higher-level apparatus, and for configuring a storage space using page units. The storage system generates a second VOL (logical volume) based on a first VOL, manages a plurality of VOLs comprising the first VOL and one or more second VOLs generated based on the first VOL as a VOL group, and allocates the same page to areas of the same address of the plurality of VOLs configuring the VOL group.
