Abstract
A data storage medium includes a convexoconcave structure formed in a storage area which is set on a first surface of a quartz glass substrate. The storage area includes a plurality of unit storage areas which are arrayed at least in one direction, and non-data storage areas which are disposed between the unit storage areas, which are adjacent to each other. The convexoconcave structure includes unit data patterns, address patterns and boundary patterns. The unit data patterns are formed in the plurality of unit storage areas respectively in the array sequence of the unit storage areas, and the address patterns are formed in the non-data storage areas so as to correspond to each of the unit storage areas in which the unit data patterns are formed respectively.
