The invention provides an optical disk drive. In one embodiment, the optical disk drive comprises a feeding device, a power driver, and a controller. The feeding device comprises a spherical aberration (SA) lens and a stepping motor, wherein the SA lens corrects spherical aberration of a light beam emitted by a pickup head, and the stepping motor moves the SA lens according to a plurality of control signals. The power driver generates the control signals to drive the stepping motor to move the SA lens. The controller directs the power driver to drive the stepping motor to move the SA lens with only stable steps when the SA lens is required to move, so that the stepping motor is in a stable state without inducing step errors after the stepping motor rotates with the stable steps.

A data recording device. A random data generator randomly generates substitute data. A recording data generator receives original data and a recording address from a host, receives the substitute data, compares the recording address with a reference address, and outputs the substitute data according to the comparison result. An encoder generates a first data block according to the substitute data. A modulator modulates the first data block. An optical pickup records the modulated first data block on the optical recording medium according to the recording address.
