Disc Maintenance
This unit features two disc maintenance functions which
optimize performance of your MD discs. The TOC WRITE
function allows you to write any edits to the TOC without
having to eject the disc. The FRA CHECK function recovers
recordable space on a disc that may have been lost
because of multiple edit operations. The diagram below
applies to the procedures for both TOC WRITE and FRA
CHECK functions.
TOC WRITE
When making a recording, the TOC (Table Of Contents) of
the MD is written as soon as recording is finished. When
making disc edits, however, the TOC isn't automatically
written unless the disc is ejected. If the unit is accidentally
turned off before writing edits to the TOC, it is possible that
these changes will not be saved. By using this function,
you can ensure that your edits are saved on the disc.

Notes
• You cannot undo an edit once it has been written to the TOC.
• The TOC Write function can only be selected when the TOC
indicator is lit in the display.
FRA CHECK
When edit functions such as “MOVE” and “DIVIDE” are
performed, spaces of recordable space may be lost and
“TOC Full” may appear in the display to indicate that no
more recording can be performed. When this occurs, it
may be possible to recover the FRA (Freely Recordable
Area) on the disc that was lost during edit functions so that
more recording is possible.
