<p>An open/closed state detecting unit (41) detects in which one of an open state, a closed state, and an intermediate state a portable information terminal (10) is, and the operation of a magnetic disk (32) is controlled based on the detection result. Opening/closing a cover (12) relative to a main body (10) generates an impact. Since this impact occurs when the cover (12) shifts from the intermediate state to the open state or to the closed state, detecting the open/closed state of the cover (12) by the open/closed state detecting unit (41) and controlling the magnetic disk (32) according to the detection result makes it possible to protect the magnetic disk (32) from the impact. <IMAGE></p> |
