A first nonvolatile storage device has a higher access speed in a continuous access than a random access and a second nonvolatile storage device has a higher access speed in the random access than the continuous access. The information processing apparatus selects a first storage method in which an amount of continuous data is larger than an amount of random data if data stored in a volatile storage device is saved in the first nonvolatile storage device, and selects a second storage method in which an amount of random data is larger than an amount of continuous data if the data stored in the volatile storage device is saved in the second nonvolatile storage device, and saves the data stored in the volatile storage device into the specified nonvolatile storage device using the selected storage method when a predetermined condition is satisfied.
