Abstract
A storage device for recordable media provides for ease of access for replacing disks, and transportability with ease of installation at any desired site. A front storage portion and a rear storage portion both of which include magazines are arranged in a body case. Each magazine is capable of containing a plurality of disks. A transfer mechanism freely transfers disks from or to magazines of the front storage portion or the rear storage portion. A vertical motion drive mechanism moves the transfer mechanism to a desired transfer position to transfer a disk to or from a magazine. The transfer mechanism can be moved to a retracted position at a sufficient distance from the magazines so that an extension mechanism can move the front and rear storage portions along the body case. After the vertical motion drive mechanism moves the transfer mechanism to the retracted position, the extension mechanism permits the front storage portion and the rear storage portion to be pulled out of the body case so that each magazine itself can be inserted, removed or exchanged.
