A sensor 15 for detecting rotation speed of an optical disc is arranged on a sub-frame 5 so as to be positioned in the vicinity of a spindle motor 7. The sensor 15 has been arranged on a main frame 3 in a LightScribe-compatible optical disc apparatus of the conventional art, but is arranged on the sub-frame 5 in the present embodiment. With this arrangement, the sub-frame 5 near the sensor 15 can be increased in size. Specifically, the space occupied by the sensor 15 near the spindle motor 7 in the conventional art can be used as a region for the sub-frame 5, and thus the sub-frame 5 can be increased in size comparing with the conventional art. As a result, the mass of the sub-frame 5 is more increased than in the conventional art, by which the vibration suppression effect can be enhanced.
