Abstract

A storage system has a storage medium, a head, and a control unit for carrying out refresh processing. A refresh operation extracts data that needs to be refreshed by measuring the read-out output level of target data. Then, data requiring refresh is re-recorded to the storage medium by the head. Because an actual data level is observed, it is possible to accurately detect refresh target data, and because there is no need for a reference area, it is possible to prevent a reduction in storage capacity.
