Abstract

An optical disk apparatus is capable of recording, reproduction and erasure by a laser beam. The user data is recorded in a RAM area on an optical disk by a recording device including a modulation encoder and a recording waveform generator. At the time of reproduction, the data in the RAM/ROM area is detected by a reproduction device to thereby demodulate the user data.
