Abstract
A recording method for a disk device includes the following steps. Sequential data is written into the medium along the track in a predetermined radial direction. Information indicating an end position along the track where the end of the sequential data is written into is stored. The information is read when additional sequential data is to be written into the medium. The additional data is written from a position along the track next to the end position indicated by the information in the predetermined radial direction. The information is updated so as to indicate an end position along the track where the end of the additional sequential data is written into.
