A WORM data storage medium includes primary (100, 200, 300, ...) and secondary (101-104) data storage areas in which data and pointers to allocated but unwritten update areas are written. Original and updated data is written in a write sequence or chain of primary data areas separated by branched secondary data storage areas. The most recent updated data is found in a two level search of primary and then secondary data storage areas in order to save time by searching only those secondary areas where the most recent update exist. <IMAGE> |
