Abstract:
A method of a continuous burn for a storage medium, related to a continuous burn to a data buffer, wherein a data structure of the storage medium comprises a data block, which further comprises at least a synchronous frame and a plurality of data frames arranged sequentially subsequent to the synchronous frame, and each of the synchronous frame and the data frames comprises a synchronous column and a data column, the method comprising:detecting whether buffer under run occurs to the data buffer; burning a data block, the data block being burned as an incomplete data block when buffer under run occurs, wherein the incomplete data block comprises a synchronous frame and an incomplete data frame and the incomplete data frame includes a last written data; pausing the burning step; burning new data into a superimposed data region of the incomplete data frame when a data amount of the data buffer reaches a predetermined data amount; and performing a continuous burn on the data stored in the data buffer into the data frames adjacent to the incomplete data frame.
