The nonvolatile storage device is made up of a memory array divided into a plurality of data-storage units and a plurality of redundancy-storage units for replacing respective failed data-storage units. A control unit detects the functionality of the data-storage units and, in case of failure, enables a redundancy-detection unit having a plurality of volatile-memory elements connected through a sequential daisy-chain connection. A nonvolatile memory unit stores, in a nonvolatile way, the redundancy information through a data bus, connected both to the redundancy-detection unit and to the nonvolatile memory unit; in the event of failure, the redundancy-detection unit transfers the addresses of the failed data-storage unit to the nonvolatile memory unit for their nonvolatile storage.
