ABSTRACT:
An inspection sector area is disposed on each data sector area of the recording area of an optical disc, and predetermined reference inspection data is recorded in the inspection sector area of a new optical disc before use. The recorded inspection data is reproduced and the number (Ej) of data errors which initially occur in the optical disc is detected by comparing the reproduced inspection data with the inspection data during recording and is memorized in the optical disc. During operation, the recorded inspection data is reproduced and compared with the reference data, and the number (Em) of data errors is issued, thereby producing the number of data errors due to particulate contamination as given by a difference between the numbers (Ej) and (Em).
