An information storage device that at least performs a write of an information file onto a recording medium in accordance with an instruction sent from a higher-level device, comprising:
- a determination section that determines whether transmission of instructions from said higher-level device is intermitted;
- and
- a component rearrangement section that rearranges components of an information file to transform the information file whose components are discontiguously stored on said recording medium into an information file whose components are stored contiguously, if said determination section determines that transmission of instructions is intermitted.
