A recording medium, a recording/reproducing apparatus, and a recording/reproducing method are disclosed. The apparatus uses the number of record layers contained in a recording medium and a multi-wavelength light source including a plurality of optical signals having different wavelengths, and irradiates an optical signal emitted from a light source on each recording medium according to wavelengths of the light beams. As a result, the apparatus can effectively gain access to the recording medium including a plurality of record layers, such that it can simultaneously record/reproduce data in/from the recording medium.
