Abstract
An apparatus for writing checksum information on a data content on a storage medium. The apparatus has a provider for providing checksum information based on the data content and a writer for writing the data content and the checksum information on the storage medium such that a baseline reader and an enhanced reader can read the data content, the enhanced reader can read and process the checksum information, and the baseline reader ignores, skips or does not read the checksum information.
Claims10
An apparatus for writing checksum information on a data content on a storage medium, comprising:
- a provider for providing checksum information based on a data content;
- and
- a writer for writing the data content, the checksum information and control information on a physical or logical location of the checksum information on the storage medium, such that a baseline reader and an enhanced reader can read the data content, the enhanced reader can read and process the control information and the checksum information and the baseline reader ignores, skips or does not read the checksum information.
A method for writing checksum information on a data content on a storage medium, comprising:
- providing checksum information based on a data content;
- and
- writing the data content, the checksum information and control information on a physical or logical location of the checksum information on the storage medium such that a baseline reader and an enhanced reader can read the data content, the enhanced reader can read and process the control information and the checksum information, and the baseline reader ignores, skips or does not read the checksum information.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a computer program comprising a program code for performing, when the computer program runs on a computer, a method for writing checksum information on a data content on a storage medium, the method comprising:
- providing checksum information based on a data content;
- and
- writing the data content, the checksum information and control information on a physical or logical location of the checksum information on the storage medium such that a baseline reader and an enhanced reader can read the data content, the enhanced reader can read and process the control information and the checksum information, and the baseline reader ignores, skips or does not read the checksum information.
