Abstract

This International Standard specifies

- the conditions for conformance testing;

- the environments in which the cartridges are to be operated and stored;

- the mechanical, physical and dimensional characteristics of the case and of the cartridges, so as to provide mechanical interchangeability between the data processing systems;

- the format of the information on the disk, both embossed and user-written, including the physical disposition of the tracks and sectors, the error correction codes, and the modulation method used;

- the characteristics of the embossed information on the disk;

- the magneto-optical characteristics of the disk, enabling processing systems to write data onto the disk;

- the minimum quality of user-written data on the disk, enabling data processing systems to read data from the disk.

This International Standard provides for interchange between optical disk drives. Together with a standard for volume and file structure, it provides for full data interchange between data processing systems.
