ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for restoring/copying recorded contents includes a first auxiliary storage (for example, a hard disk) including partitions each having an independent file structure. One particular partition recording partition data concerns the storage position of data in the partitions. A second auxiliary storage (for example, a CD-ROM) includes one partition data file corresponding to the particular partition in the hard disk for holding the partition data, and partition files corresponding to the partitions in the hard disk for holding the contents of the partitions. A partition data restoring unit reads the partition data file from the CD-ROM and records the partition data into the particular partition in the hard disk in response to an input command for restoration from the CD-ROM to the hard disk. A partition restoring unit receives the partition data from the partition data restoring unit, reading sequentially the partition files from the CD-ROM in accordance with the input command, and recording contents of the partition files into corresponding storage positions in the partitions in the hard disk.
