ABSTRACT:
In an information recording medium where information is recorded and/or reproduced by a probe performing relative scanning, an information region for detecting abnormality of the probe is provided separate from a region where information is recorded and/or reproduced. Also disclosed is an information recording and/or reproducing method for recording information on and/or reproducing information from an information recording medium while relatively scanning the recording medium by a probe, which includes a step of detecting abnormality of the probe by detecting a predetermined information region separated from a region where the information is recorded and/or reproduced on the information recording medium. Also disclosed is an information recording and/or reproducing apparatus for recording information on and/or reproducing information from an information recording medium while relatively scanning the information recording medium by a probe, which includes an abnormality detection device for detecting abnormality of the probe according to a result of a detection by the probe of a predetermined information region separated from a region where the information is recorded and/or reproduced on the information recording medium.
