ABSTRACT:
In a disk-storing disk device according to the present invention, within a casing having an insertion opening formed on the front face for inserting a disk, a plurality of holders are arranged in piles disproportionately on the X1side about an insertion center line while a drive unit is rotatably supported on the X2side from the insertion center line. When any of the holders is selected and a disk is inserted through the insertion opening, the disk is clamped to transfer rollers. A transporting unit is counterclockwise rotated while the disk is transferred with the transfer rollers. By the rotation, the disk is securely conveyed to the holder arranged disproportionately on the X1side. Thereby, efficiency of arranging respective units in the casing is improved so as to provide a disk-storing disk device with short depth size.
