A control system is provided for an optical disk driving apparatus adapted to rotate an optical disk having a plurality of tracks, and which is adapted, during the rotation of the disk, to perform optical recording and/or reproduction of information for a track which has been accessed with a light beam. The control system changes the speed f of recording/reproduction of information in accordance with the radius r of a track to be accessed in such a manner that the tracks are divided into a plurality of concentric annular blocks each having different approximate radii, and the same speed f of the recording/reproduction of information is allocated to the tracks in the same block but different speeds f of recording and/or reproduction of information are allocated to the respective blocks. The controlling system changes the speed n of rotation of the optical disk with respect to the radius r of the track to be accessed and the speed f of record/reproduction of information allocated to the block including the track to be accessed so that f/(n.multidot.r) is constant.
