This International Standard specifies the characteristics of 130 mm optical disk cartridges (ODCs) with a capacity of

1 Gigabyte per cartridge. It specifies two related, but different implementations of such cartridges:

This International Standard specifies:

  • the conditions for conformance testing and the reference drive;

  • the environments in which the cartridges are to be operated and stored;

  • the mechanical, physical and dimensional characteristics of the case and of the cartridge, so as to provide mechanical interchangeability between data processing systems;

  • the format of the information on the disk, both embossed and user-written, including the physical disposition of the tracks and sectors, the error correction codes, and the modulation method used;

  • the characteristics of the embossed information on the disk;

  • the magneto-optical characteristics of the disk, enabling processing systems to write data onto the disk;

  • the minimum quality of user-written data on the disk, enabling data processing systems to read data from the disk.

It also provides for interchange between optical disk drives. Together with a standard for volume and file structure, it provides for full data interchange between data processing systems. Interchange involves the ability to write, read and erase data without introducing any error.
