ABSTRACT:
Provided is information processing equipment capable of efficiently performing data transfer restarted after it is suspended because a possibility of being affected by an impact derived from dropping or the like is predicted or detected. During transfer of data from an HDD, an amount-of-transferred data meter counts in real time the number of sectors from which data has been transferred. An acceleration sensor detects acceleration applied to the equipment. A sector that may be affected by an impact derived from dropping or the like is identified based on the number of sectors indicated with a result of the measurement obtained when the detected acceleration value exceeds a threshold. Information on the sector is written in a register. When the data transfer is restarted, it is restarted with data stored in the sector that is recorded in the register.
