ABSTRACT:
An optical disc is divided into a plurality of sectors each of which includes an address section, a flag section and a data section. First sector management data are stored in the flag section, normally in the form of a flag pit. In one aspect of the invention, the first sector management data are recorded in the flag section at higher laser beam power than the power used for recording data in the data section. In another aspect of the invention, second sector management data are additionally stored in the data section in the form of a special pattern. In this case, the second sector management data are read out if no sector management data have been read from the flag section of the sector.
