ABSTRACT:
A drive apparatus has vertically movable blocks on opposite lower front portions of a cartridge holder. On a base incorporated in the drive apparatus, there is provided a slide plate which moves when a disk cartridge is inserted in the drive apparatus. The slide plate has a cam for raising the blocks. A positioning pin and a pushing switch are located on the upper surface of each block. Each pushing switch has two switch elements. That one of the pushing switches which is located on the right block outputs "0, 0" when a single-sided disk cartridge is inserted upside down, "1, 1" when the single-sided disk cartridge is inserted correctly, and "0, 1 " when a double-sided disk cartridge is inserted.
