Abstract

This invention provides an optical storage device for recording a plurality of data onto an optical storage medium. If recording interrupted, the optical storage device generates a data-interrupted address, and re-connects the interrupted data with a data re-connecting physical address. The optical storage device comprises a physical addressing module, a record-interrupt generator, a data recording controller, a data-interrupt address generator, and a data-reconnecting physical address generator. The physical addressing module provides a reference physical address for recording data onto the optical storage medium. When detecting the interrupt of data recording, the data-interrupt address generator generates the address of the interrupted data. According to the address of the interrupted data, the data-reconnecting physical address generator generates a data-reconnecting physical address. The optical storage device utilizes the data-reconnecting physical address to continue to record the interrupted data onto the optical storage medium.
