An apparatus for recording the transfer information transferred to it includes a plurality of recording media for recording the transfer information transferred from an information transfer apparatus, a writing control unit for controlling the writing of the transfer information in the recording media, and a transfer control unit for transmitting the transfer control information and an information transfer request signal to the information transfer apparatus. The transfer control information is the information for determining the transfer sequence of information blocks when the information transfer apparatus transmits the transfer information as the information blocks. The information recording apparatus transmits an information transfer request signal after transmitting the transfer control information to the information transfer apparatus. In this manner, the information recording apparatus receives the transfer information transmitted from the transfer apparatus on a information block basis and records the transfer information on the information block basis on plural recording media. It becomes possible in this manner to record information data on plural recording media not having a uniform writing speed from one recording unit to another, such as a flash memory, by parallel writing in a regular sequence, for enabling highly efficient information transfer by simplified control.
