Logical triggering methods and apparatus for use with optical bio-discs. Some embodiments place physical triggers on the surface of the disc. Other embodiments logically encode triggers in user data area of optical bio discs. Still other embodiments take advantage of common optical disc operational components such as pits, lands, and other information encoding indicia for the purpose of encoding triggers. Primary decoding components are used to decode logical triggers. Alternatively, an added secondary decoding component or a data processor may also be used for the purpose of processing triggers. Logical triggers may be encoded in a pit/land pattern, encoded in the time code control information of wobble signal of a CD-R/RW disc, encoded in the header address information of a DVD-RAM based disc, or may be superimposed on the operational logic of the drive. Other triggering patterns are invoked by chemical reaction caused by chemistry placed on the discs.
