Recording apparatus that records data using file system, control method therefor, and storage medium storing control program therefor

Abstract

A recording apparatus that is capable of preventing degradation of a writing speed of management information under recording without increasing the recording preparation time when a plurality of files are recorded simultaneously. The recording apparatus includes a memory and a processor that function as a recording unit that records a file in a recording medium, and a controller that controls so as to record a directory entry of a file in a designated sector in the recording medium. The recording medium consists of blocks each of which includes a plurality of pages, allows to write data in a page unit, allows to erase data in a block unit, and allows to access a page corresponding to a sector designated by a sector number. When a plurality of files will be recorded, the controller controls so that directory entries of the plurality of files will be recorded in a same sector.
