Abstract
In a facsimile system received data is initially stored in an internal storage device, and subsequently is stored in an external storage device (hard disk drive or floppy disk drive) by a transfer process. The facsimile system stores the received data from a transmitting party in the internal storage device and determines a state of availability of the external storage device. When the external storage deice is available, the received data is transferred to the external storage device, and if not available, transfer is delayed until it becomes available.
