A method for determining a track searching direction is disclosed. The method takes advantage of the characteristic that the movement of the photo-diode with respect to the optical disk is not perpendicular to the track direction. Therefore, the phase difference between the front side and the rear side of the photo-diode could be used to define a seeking error signal. The seeking error signal is used, together with a tracking error (TE) signal and a radio frequency ripple (RFRP) signal, to determine the track searching direction. Because the seeking error signal has a better signal-to-noise ratio, the phase lead or lag can be determined more accurately. As a result, the accuracy of detecting the track searching direction on a blank disk is improved.
