ABSTRACT:
A disk array apparatus employs portable optical disk. The apparatus determines whether a file should be concentrated recorded in a single optical disk or distributively recorded among a plurality of disks, in accordance with the amount of that file. With respect to an often-accessed file, the apparatus records it among a number of optical disks, or makes a duplicate copy of the file and stores the duplicate copy in an optical disk different from the optical disk containing the often-accessed file. Since the often-accessed file is handled in this manner, the apparatus enables efficient file management and permits a file to be accessed at high speed.
