When one recording medium is accessed from a multiple number of applications, the medium is usually divided into multiple areas. If this area division is performed and managed by partitioning, it is difficult to change the size of the partitions. Therefore, there has been the problem that the recording medium can not be used effectively. The recording medium is divided into multiple areas, and for each area, dummy data is written into the blank space in the area so that dummy data can only be overwritten using a particular application or with a file of a particular type. This configuration makes it easy to divide the medium into multiple areas and change the size of the areas.
