PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a disk drive freely attachable/detachable with respect to an electronic equipment including a computer device. SOLUTION: When the HDD 1 which reads/writes the data by the request from the electronic equipment 20 while being freely attachable/detachable with respect to the electronic equipment 20, is connected to the electronic equipment 20, the processing speeds of read/write data of the electronic equipment 20 and the HDD 1 are compared. When a result of this comparison satisfies the prescribed condition the buffering of the read/write data is carried out by using a sector buffer 9 in the HDD 1. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
