[0195] 1-1. Additional recording type recording medium
[0196] Figure 1A The appearance of the information recording medium 100 in the embodiment of the present invention is shown.
[0197] A lead-in area 101 is arranged on the innermost periphery of the information recording medium 100 . A lead-out area 103 is arranged on the outermost periphery of the information recording medium 100 . A data area 102 is disposed between the lead-in area 101 and the lead-out area 103 of the information recording medium 100 .
[0198] In the lead-in area 101 , reference information necessary for an optical pickup included in the recording / reproducing unit 314 described later to access the information recording medium 100 , identification information with other recording media, and the like are recorded. The same information as that recorded in the lead-in area 101 is also recorded in the lead-out area 103 .
[0199] A plurality of physical sectors are allocated to the lead-in area 101 ,...

[0618] 2-1.NWA determination processing steps
[0619] Here, a method for determining a next recordable address (hereinafter referred to as a logical NWA) indicated by a logical address returned by the drive device 310 in response to a request from the host device 305 will be described.
[0620] In this embodiment, the logical NWA is determined by the following steps.
[0621] Firstly, the next ECC cluster of the ECC cluster including the physical sector indicated by the LRA is determined. This ECC cluster is the next recorded ECC cluster. The first physical sector where the ECC cluster is recorded becomes the next recordable address, and the next recordable address indicated by this physical address is the above-mentioned NWA.
[0622] The value of the logical NWA is the value obtained after converting the PSN value represented by the NWA into an LSN according to the initial logical address-physical address mapping.
[0623] A few specific examples are used below for illus...
no. 3 Embodiment approach
[0641] 3-1. Record processing steps (1)
[0642] In the NWA determination method in the above-mentioned second embodiment, a certain LSN may not be used.
[0643] For example, in Figure 14A , the logical sector at the position of LSN=96 is a logical sector in which no data has ever been recorded from the perspective of the host device 305 or the file system.
[0644] Such a logical sector is called an unrecorded logical sector, or an unused logical sector, an orphan logical sector, or the like.
[0645] In addition, a logical cluster composed of such unrecorded logical sectors is called an unrecorded logical cluster. For example, Figure 14A The positions where LSN=96 to 127 are unrecorded logical clusters.
[0646] Similarly, in Figure 15A In , the position of LSN=X2 is an unrecorded logical sector.
[0647] Such as Figure 14A etc., for such an unrecorded logical sector, an LSN is allocated like other common logical sectors, and the LSN of subsequent logical sectors...
