Abstract
A method of recording data, including audio data and control data, to a SCSI drive having both a write mode and a write-verify mode, comprises the steps of initializing the drive to a write mode, receiving recording data and organizing the recording data into SCSI request blocks (SRBs), and checking each SRB to see if it contains a write block. If the SRB includes either no write block or is audio data, then the SRB is recorded by the drive. However, if the SRB includes a write block and no audio data, then the SRB is converted from a write block to a write-verify block and recorded by the drive.
