In magnetic disk inspection, it is made possible to perform the total operation in which magnetic disks taken out from a cassette are inspected on both surfaces thereof, classified by the grades according to the inspection results and returned again to corresponding cassettes, while maintaining high throughput. To achieve such inspection, a plurality of uninspected boards are put on a plurality of corresponding rotation-drive portions at a plurality of corresponding board taking-out and supply positions in a magnetic disk inspection apparatus and are transferred to a plurality of corresponding inspection positions. The boards are optically inspected while rotating. The optically inspected boards are transferred to the plurality of corresponding board taking-out and supply positions and the plurality of transferred boards are taken out. The taken-out boards are sorted according to the optical inspection results and stored in the corresponding cassettes into which inspected boards are stored. |
