METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ROTARY STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT AND SYSTEM THEREFOR

摘要

The present invention provides a control method of a rotary storage medium having an electronic circuit that controls connection between an electronic circuit block and an external apparatus to enhance the performance of the entire system, and a system thereof. The system is an intelligent disk system including an intelligent disk having double-surface structure that stores information and is detachable from a drive unit, wherein an electronic circuit is mounted on at least one surface or between both surfaces of the intelligent disk and the electronic circuit is provided with a CPU, and wherein the system controls the intelligent disk so that contents of the disk surfaces of the intelligent disk may be transferred to or loaded in an external apparatus at the time of the intelligent disk rotating or mechanically operating (S36-S37) and the CPU may control the external apparatus when the intelligent disk is not operating. <IMAGE>
