Abstract
A disk storage device includes a data transfer control device for transferring data from a higher rank device to a storage medium and transferring data from the storage medium to the higher rank device, an identification device having identification information for determining whether it should be permitted or inhibited to write data into a predetermined recording area of the storage medium, and a data transfer command device, responsive to a data recording command given by the higher rank device, to order the data transfer control device to write data into the storage medium according to the identification information of the identification device. In response to a data write command given to the storage medium by the higher rank device, the data transfer command device collates a state of the data write command with the identification information possessed by a predetermined sector of the storage medium. When the identification information indicates data write inhibition, the data transfer command device does not order the data transfer control device to transfer data to the storage medium.
