Optical information recording method, optical information recording equipment and optical information recording medium

摘要

The object of the present invention is to reduce the time of a test recording when using the CAV recording method, and to allow a spindle motor to be inexpensive.

When performing a test recording using a medium which has a CAV recording format, a test recording area 24 for use at an intermediate linear velocity is provided at a radial position where the rotation speed of the medium is equal to or less than the rotation speed of the medium when performing information recording, and a test recording area 22 for use at a minimum linear velocity and a test recording area 23 for use at a maximum linear velocity are provided at a radial position where the rotation speed of the medium is equivalent to the rotation speed of the medium when performing information recording.
