A storage device includes memory cells disposed in a matrix. The memory cells each include a storage element whose resistance changes from a higher state to a lower state when an electric signal of a first threshold level or higher is applied and whose resistance changes from the lower state to the higher state when an electric signal of a second threshold level or higher whose polarity is different from the polarity of the electric signal of the first threshold level or higher is applied, and a circuit element connected in series with the storage element. In a state in which an erasing voltage is applied to at least one memory cell on which erasing is currently being performed, after the lapse of a predetermined time from the application, an erasing voltage is applied to at least one memory cell on which erasing is to be next performed.
