Claim:
1. An image processing apparatus including a hard disk drive, comprising: a mounting information holding circuit that holds mounting information indicating whether or not mounting is normally completed when mounting the hard disk drive; an abnormality determination circuit that determines whether or not a predetermined abnormality determination condition is met based on the mounting information related to already-executed mounting held in the mounting information holding circuit when the hard disk drive is inaccessible; a mounting execution circuit that sets a power supply of the hard disk drive to ON state after once setting to OFF state, and then executes mounting of the hard disk drive after the setting to ON state when the abnormality determination circuit determines that the abnormality determination condition is not met; an operation state holding circuit that holds an operation state of the image processing apparatus at a time point at which a predetermined specified event occurs; and an operation state reproduction circuit that reproduces the operation state held in the operation state holding circuit as an operation state of the image processing apparatus after executing mounting when the mounting execution circuit executes the mounting of the hard disk drive in response to a decrease of a power supply voltage supplied to the hard disk drive.
