Apparatus and method for performing pause motion of optical pick up

The present invention is an optical relates to a disk drive operation apparatus and method, and more particularly relates to a recording region and a do pose operation of the optical pick-up performed by the optical disk is an unrecorded area coexist poses operation of the optical pick-up stably apparatus and method will be. Performing pose operation of the optical pick-up method is current, the optical pickup when the store start address and end address of the data recording area on the optical disk coexist in the data recording area and a data non-recorded area, the optical pickup moved to the data non-recorded area sending a pause command to maintain the position, characterized in that for moving the optical pickup from the address of the optical pickup at the time of the pause command issued to the end address of the nearest data recording area. Effects that can be prevented, the recording area and when the optical disk which is an unrecorded area coexist by performing pose operation of the optical pick-up reliably the optical pickup to read the recording area at least as occurrences mothayeo read the unrecorded area in accordance with the present invention and the creation.
