Abstract

PURPOSE:To record two kinds of information on the same plane at the same spot by different systems by constituting a magnetic film of a photomagnetic recording medium which has a magnetooptic effect and is formed on a lower layer and longitudinal recording medium which has the coercive force smaller than the coercive force of the photomagnetic recording medium and is formed on an upper layer. CONSTITUTION:Servocontrol information is written to the longitudinal recording medium 3 by a magnetic head 9 provided to a device. Flash light or the like is applied to the medium in this state from the top to heat the medium to the temp. (Curie point) at which the coercive force of the photomagnetic recording medium 3 is nearly zero. Then, the information written in the medium 3 is transferred to the medium 6. The information transferred to the medium 6 is read out by utilizing the magnetooptic effect with which the plane of polarization of the reflected light or transmitted light rotates with respect to the incident light such as laser light from a light source 14. Such information is used for the servocontrol operation of the magnetic head of this disk device. The information is usable without being disturbed by the data information written to the medium 3 as far as the medium 6 is not heated to the Curie point or above.
