摘要:
A system in an optical storage device has a controller which obtains a plurality of write strategy parameters for the optical storage device to write data on an optical storage medium. The write strategy parameters are derived from data-to-clock edge deviations respectively corresponding to a plurality of data set types. Each of the data set types corresponds to a combination of at least a specific target pit length and a specific target land length, or a combination of at least a specific target land length and a specific target pit length.

An optical storage apparatus includes an optical pickup head, a drive module, a spherical aberration compensator, and a controller module. The drive module is coupled to the optical pickup head for performing a predetermined operation associated with the optical pickup head. The spherical aberration compensator is coupled to the optical pickup head for performing a spherical aberration compensation upon the optical pickup head. The controller module is coupled to the drive module and the spherical aberration compensator for controlling the drive module to perform the predetermined operation during a first period of time and the spherical aberration compensator to perform the spherical aberration compensation during a second period of time. The first period of time overlaps the second period of time.
