An optical disk apparatus reads identification data recorded at a predetermined timing in a predetermined position of a loaded optical disk. The type of the optical disk is judged according to the identification data. That is, a judgment is made as to whether the optical disk is a CAV type, in which the recording/reproduction timing, i.e., the demodulation/modulation frequency, is constant irrespective of the access position on the disk, or whether it is of M-CAV type, in which the recording/reproduction timing, is varied according to the access position. According to the result of judgement, the recording/reproduction timing, with respect to the optical disk, is controlled for recording or reproduction of data. The optical disk apparatus can be used with both types of optical disk.
