Abstract
A magneto-optical disk storage has an erroneous insertion preventing mechanism which projects into a holder so that it can touch the magneto-optical disk cartridge in order to prevent the same from being inserted. The erroneous insertion preventing mechanism mechanically engages with the magneto-optical disk cartridge and moves in a direction approximately vertical to the recording suface of the magneto-optical disk to allow the magneto-optical disk cartridge to be inserted only if the magneto-optical disk cartridge is being inserted into the holder with a correct orientation.
