<p>The magnetic disk apparatus includes generator portion (13) for providing error-correcting information about data that are input in error correction batches from an external device, a magnetic disk (17) for storing the data input in error correction batches from the external device and the corresponding error-correcting information, and high-speed storage portion (12) for temporarily storing data received from the external device. Input data from the external device are stored temporarily in the high-speed storage portion, and when a complete batch of data for error correction has been stored, the batch of data is transferred both to the magnetic disk and to the generator portion to provide error-correcting information. An independent claim is included for a method of data transfer.</p> |
