Abstract
A recorded state monitoring portion,monitors a state where a recording instruction to a storage device,is executed. A recording managing portion,judges whether or not the result of the monitoring by the recorded state monitoring portion,satisfies a predetermined condition, to issue the recording instruction to the storage device,when the result of the judgment is affirmative, while issuing a recording instruction to an auxiliary storage device,when it is negative. Data continuously fed are recorded upon being shared between the storage device,and the auxiliary storage device,, so that the apparent recording speed is equal to the sum of the recording speed of the storage device,and the recording speed of the auxiliary storage device,, thereby making higher-speed recording possible.
