Abstract
The method adapted for a disc burner for sensing/computing the maximum allowable capacity of a disc for overburn purpose where an accurate capacity of the disc based on the outermost-edge wobble signal is obtained, resulting in more data written on the disc with an amount of the data smaller than the physically-recordable maximum capacity of the disc and decreasing the failure rate of data overburning.
Claims4
A method adapted for a disc burner for sensing a physically-recordable maximum capacity of a disc, the method comprising steps of:
- receiving an inquiry instruction for sensing a physically-recordable maximum capacity of a disc;
- sensing wobble signals detected from a disc held in the disc burner;
- obtaining an outermost-edge wobble signal of the disc;
- computing the physically-recordable maximum capacity of the disc based on the outermost-edge wobble signal;
- and
- responding to the inquiry instruction with the physically-recordable maximum capacity being computed.
