An operating portion is included in an input/output section of an information read/write device. The operating portion judges whether or not a sector is usable on the basis of medium position information and record position information. A device information storing portion is inserted between a read/write portion and a communication portion. Memory capacity of the device information storing portion is equal to or larger than a data read/write unit. Read/write information on the recording medium is temporarily developed into the device information storing portion, so that information is transferred in blocks of read/write unit that can be handled in an OS.
