An information processing unit and a storage unit are connected to each other through any one of a first interface, which is capable of interconnection in which the storage unit is powered on first, and after the storage unit is put into operation, the information processing unit is powered on, and a second interface, which is incapable of interconnection. The information processing unit has a PROM storing information on type of interface. The management unit reads out the type from the PROM upon reception of an instruction to power on the information processing unit. When the information processing unit is connected to the storage unit through the first interface, power-on is performed by predetermined control. When the information processing unit is not connected to the storage unit through the first interface, the storage unit is powered on, and then, the information processing unit is powered on.
