An apparatus (B) for transferring data to a drive apparatus (A) is disclosed. The data are temporarily held in a memory (12) of the drive apparatus for subsequent recording in a recording medium (1). The apparatus includes a first unit (56, 57) which performs for multiple repetitions a first process of transferring the data to the drive apparatus and a second process of converting data for a subsequent transfer to data processable at the drive apparatus. In addition, a second unit (51) indicates timing (C) in accordance with the amount of data and a rate of transferring the data. A third unit causes the drive apparatus to record, during a period (6) in which the second process is executed and the first process is not executed, in the recording medium at the indicated timing, the data being temporarily held in the memory of the drive apparatus. |
