2053264 9013093 PCTABS00002 Apparatus and method wherein a credit card sized memory card (16) having a magnetic storage medium (18) thereon can be inserted into an operative position adjacent to a read/write head (24), and the card and head can be moved relative to each other to permit the head to read data from or to write data on the magnetic medium of the memory card. In a first embodiment, a disk form (12) is provided like a hard disk but with a cut out portion or opening (14) therein into which the memory card is insertable. The disk form can then be rotated so that the magnetic medium on the card can be moved past the read/write head movable radially of the central axis (21) of the disk form. In another embodiment the memory card (102) is movable into a fixed operative position adjacent to a read/write head (106) and the head is movable radially as well as circumferentially so that the head and memory card are movable relative to each other in two degrees of freedom.
