1. A method for writing a file, the method comprising:
- writing a first file that has been determined by a controller to be a non-volatile file, to a memory according to a first writing scheme if the file to be written to the memory is the first file; and
writing a second file that has been determined by a controller to be a volatile file, to the memory according to a second writing scheme which is different from the first writing scheme if the file to be written to the memory is different from the first file,wherein the first writing scheme intermittently updates already-written file information regarding the first file, andthe second writing scheme does not update already-written file information regarding the second file.

Abstract
A method for writing a file by different writing schemes according to file characteristic and electronic device using the method are provided. A method for writing a file is provided, including writing a first file to a memory according to a first writing scheme if the file to be written to the memory is the first file, and writing a second file to the memory according to a second writing scheme which is different from the first writing scheme if the file to be written to the memory is the second file different from the first file.

7. An electronic device comprising:
-
a memory to which a file is written; and a controller which writes a first file, which has been determined by the controller to be a non-volatile file, to the memory according to a first writing scheme if the file to be written to the memory is the first file, and writes a second file, which has been determined by the controller to be a volatile file, to the memory according to a second writing scheme which is different from the first writing scheme if the file to be written to the memory is different from the first file, wherein the first writing scheme periodically updates file information, which has been already written, regarding the first file, and the second writing scheme does not update file information, which has been already written, regarding the second file. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method for writing a file, the method comprising:
-
determining, using a controller, whether a file to be written to a memory is a volatile or non-volatile file; writing file information regarding the file to be written to the memory; writing the entire file to the memory without updating the file information, if the file is determined to be a volatile file; and writing the file to the memory while periodically updating the file information if the file is determined to be a non-volatile file. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. An electronic device comprising:
-
a memory; and a controller which determines whether a file to be written to the memory is a volatile or non-volatile file, writes file information regarding the file to be written to the memory, and then writes the entire file to the memory without updating the file information if the file is determined to be a volatile file, and writes the entire file to the memory while periodically updating the file information if the file is determined to be a non-volatile file. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22)
