A system for controlling the displacement of a head to reduce access time in a disc storage unit having a multiphase stepping motor. While the disc storage unit receives a series of pulses designating the desired displacement of the head, a counter counts the number of pulses received. When the count exceeds a predetermined value at the end of a predetermined time as indicated by a timer, a driving unit selectively drives the stepping motor to displace the head. Displacement of the head towards a desired position may begin before reception of the series of pulses designating the desired position is completed, thereby reducing access time.
