A disc apparatus is provided in which a disc inserted by automatic loading by a plurality of arms supporting outer peripheral edges of two kinds of discs with different diameters can be loaded into the disc apparatus or a disc accommodated within the disc apparatus can be unloaded from the disc apparatus. This disc apparatus includes an elevation frame for swinging a turntable on which the disc is fixed and rotated in the upper and lower direction, wherein a rotary base plate of a disc supporting arm is slightly distorted in the initial state in which the elevation frame is lowered, whereby a tip end of a holder provided at a tip end of the disc supporting arm approaches or contacts the surface of the elevation frame to prevent a rear end side of a large-diameter disc or a small-diameter disc from entering the lower surface of the holder.
