Abstract
An optical disc recording method of determining a disc address when write and read operations are performed for an optical disc during recording power calibration in an optical disc recording apparatus having at least two optical head units including first and second optical head units is disclosed. The method includes: determining a first recording power calibration start address, which is an address at which the first optical head unit starts calibration of the recording power, from a power calibration area provided in advance as an area used to calibrate the recording power; and determining an address obtained by adding a range of the power calibration area used to calibrate the recording power to the first recording power calibration start address as a second recording power calibration start address, which is an address at which the second optical head unit starts calibration of the recording power.
