ABSTRACT An error checking method and apparatus for recording digital data in an optical recording medium. Digital data are written onto the medium by a modulated laser whose beam is detected by a first photodetector which measures laser output directed toward the recording medium. A second photodetector measures light scattering from the medium, while a third photo- detector detects and measures light transmitted through the recording layer of the medium serving to confirm recording of the data. Amounts of trans- mitted light or scattered light from the medium are correlated to the laser output and to expected values of the light for detecting errors in recoding medium eliminates a large fraction of potential errors.
