Structure of the accretion disk is compared between the soft and hard states of Cyg X-1 using the ASCA data. Large uncertainty of the disk parameters in hard state prevent us from drawing clear conclusion, but the data are consistent with a factor of 3 larger (optically thick) inner disk boundary in the hard state than in the soft state.
