A storage device is provided that includes a first interface unit configured to connect to an external apparatus; a second interface unit configured to connect to a network; and a control unit which controls the storage device. The control unit determines whether a predetermined command is received from the external apparatus. The control unit selects a first operating mode where the storage device is used by the external apparatus and the second interface unit is disabled, if the control unit determines that the predetermined command is received from the external apparatus. The control unit selects a second operating mode where the storage device operates as a file server and the second interface unit is enabled, if the control unit determines that the predetermined command is not received from the external apparatus.
