摘要:
The present invention provides an information processing unit capable of controlling reading and writing operations even when the capacity of a portable storage device is changed, a portable storage device controlled by the information processing unit, and an entertainment apparatus. The entertainment apparatus has a memory card 100, and an information processing unit 200 to which the memory card 100 is detachably connected. The memory card 100 is provided with a flash ROM 140 in which the size of a page of data capable of being read and written at a time are determined in advance, identification information 142 and an ROM size table 121. The information processing unit 200 is adapted to obtain page size-indicating information from the memory card, and control in accordance with the page size the reading and writing of data with respect to the flash ROM 140.

摘要:
A record reproducing player and save data processing methods capable of insuring security of save data are provided. Save data is stored in a recording device, encrypted with the use of a program's individual encryption key, e.g., a content key, or a save data encryption key created based the content key, and when reproducing the save data a decryption process is conducted on it with the use of the save data decryption key particular to the program. Furthermore, it is made possible to create save data encryption keys based on a variety of restriction information, such as performing the storing and reproducing of the save data by conducting encryption and decryption on the save data with the save data encryption keys and decryption keys created with the use of a record reproducing player's individual key or a user's password.
