Abstract
A method and an apparatus for processing data are provided. A first memory stores data input from a source; a message processor displays a message asking whether to connect to a second memory capable of storing data, if space left on the first memory, which is available for storing data, reaches a threshold value; an interface part is connected to the second memory; and a controller controls the interface part to transmit to the connected second memory data stored from the time of selecting connection to the second memory, if the connection to the second memory is selected in response to the message and the second memory is connected.
Claims26
A data processing method comprising:
- storing data input from a source on a first memory;
- determining, in a determination, whether to connect to a second memory, if space left on the first memory, which is available for storing the data, reaches a threshold value;
- and
- connecting the second memory if it is determined to connect to the second memory, and transferring first data stored since a time of the determination to connect to the second memory, to the connected second memory.
A data processing apparatus comprising:
- a first memory which stores data input from a source;
- a message processor which displays a message asking whether to connect to a second memory, if space left on the first memory reaches a threshold value;
- an interface part which is connected to the second memory;
- and
- a controller which transfers to the connected second memory first data stored since a time it is determined to connect to the second memory, if it is determined to connect to the second memory in response to the message and the second memory is connected.
