1. A disk drive apparatus having access to a disk-shaped recording medium, comprising:
- temperature detecting means for detecting an internal temperature; and
temperature control means for changing the disk drive apparatus to either an operating state or a stop state based on a change in the internal temperature,wherein a first temperature and a second temperature are different from each other, andthe temperature control means changes the disk drive apparatus to the stop state at the first temperature and to the operating state at the second temperature.

8. An imaging apparatus having a disk drive apparatus which has access to a disk-shaped recording medium, the imaging apparatus comprising:
-
imaging means for imaging an image to record it as image data in the disk drive apparatus; reproducing means for reading the image data out of the disk drive apparatus for reproduction; temperature detecting means for detecting a temperature of the disk drive apparatus; and temperature control means for changing the disk drive apparatus to either an operating state or a stop state based on a change in the temperature of the disk drive apparatus, wherein the temperature control means changes the disk drive apparatus to the stop state at a first temperature and to the operating state at a second temperature, which are different from each other.

9. A control method of a disk drive apparatus having access to a disk-shaped recording medium, comprising the steps of:
-
detecting an internal temperature; maintaining the disk drive apparatus in a stop state when the internal temperature is lower than a first temperature; maintaining the disk drive apparatus in an operating state when the internal temperature is higher than a second temperature that is higher than the first temperature; changing the disk drive apparatus to the stop state when the internal temperature drops from a high temperature to a temperature lower than the first temperature; and changing the disk drive apparatus to the operating state when the internal temperature rises from a low temperature to a temperature higher than the second temperature.
