ABSTRACT:
An information recording/reproducing apparatus removably holding a disk cartridge including a case having a head window and a recording medium stored in the case is provided. The apparatus includes: a rotation mechanism; a cartridge loading mechanism for transporting the disk cartridge from a first unloading position to a first recording/reproducing position when the disk cartridge is mounted, and for transporting the disk cartridge from the first recording/reproducing position to the first unloading position when the disk cartridge is removed; and a head loading mechanism for transporting the head from a second unloading position to a second recording/reproducing position after the disk cartridge has been placed at the first recording/reproducing position when the disk cartridge is mounted, and for transporting the head from the second recording/reproducing position to the second unloading position before the disk cartridge is transported from the first recording/reproducing position to the first unloading position when the disk cartridge is removed. The second unloading position is set outside the periphery of the disk cartridge at the first recording/reproducing position.
