The disc storage device stores the write data stored in the data buffer 14 in a saving region provided in a storage disc 19 in response to reception of the power save command, executes the power save command, and reports a response to the host. Therefore, a processing time to the command is shortened while maintaining safety of the write data, and a response time to the host can be shortened.
