Media Description
+R, +R DL
The drive closes the Fragment associated with the track number in the CDB.
If the Fragment being closed is reserved and blank or partially written, the drive
will pad the Fragment to its defined length. User data areas in all pad sectors will
be zero filled.
If the Fragment being closed is an incomplete Fragment and the incomplete
Fragment is not blank, then a new DCB will be appended into the Session
Identification Zone defining the existence of the Fragment.
If the Fragment being closed is an incomplete Fragment and the incomplete
Fragment is blank, then the command will be terminated with GOOD status and
sense data will be set to NO SENSE/NO ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
CD-R/RW
The drive closes the last session.
If not all tracks in the last Session are closed, the drive terminates the command
with CHECK CONDITION status and sets SK/ASC/ASCQ values to ILLEGAL
REQUEST/SESSION FIXATION ERROR – INCOMPLETE TRACK IN SESSION.
Behavior of the closing operation is dependent on the Multi-Session field in the
Write Parameters Page (05h). If the last session is empty, the command will be
terminated with GOOD status.
Formatted
CD-RW
Not valid
DVD-R/-
RW
DVD-R DL
The drive closes the last border.
If all RZones in the last Border are not complete, the drive generates CHECK
CONDITION Status, 5/72/03 SESSION FIXATION ERROR - INCOMPLETE TRACK IN
SESSION.
If one or more empty or partially recorded reserved RZones exist in the
incomplete Border, the drive generates CHECK CONDITION Status, 5/72/04
EMPTY OR PARTIALLY WRITTEN RESERVED TRACK.
Behavior of the closing operation is dependent on the Multisession/Border field in
the Write Parameters Mode Page (05h). Closing an empty Border does not
produce an error and a write to the media will not occur.
Formatted
DVD-RW
When the last bordered area is in the intermediate state, Lead-in and/or Border-
out are recorded to make the bordered area complete state. (If the bordered area
is to be closed that is the first one, Lead-in and Border-out will be recorded. If the
bordered area is to be closed that is second or later one, only the Border-out will
be recorded.)
+RW
If a background format is in progress, the format operation will be stopped and
the disc will be structured for removal according to the
DVD+RW 4.7 Gbytes Basic
Format Specifications
for the specific purpose of providing DVD-RO compatibility.
To be concrete, a [partial] lead-in will be written, a [temporary] lead-out will be
appended and all unrecorded gaps between lead-in and lead-out will be format
written. The radius difference between the start of the temporary lead-out and
the end of the temporary lead-out will approximate 1 mm. The data zone will be
expanded to ensure that the total recorded area reaches at least a radius of 35
mm.

+R
The drive closes the last session.
If not all Fragments in the last Session are closed, the Drive will terminate this
command with CHECK CONDITION Status and sense data shall be set to ILLEGAL
REQUEST/SESSION FIXATION ERROR/ INCOMPLETE TRACK IN SESSION.
If upon completion of the closure, less than 65 ECC blocks would remain, the
drive will finalize the disc.
If the session being closed is session number 154, when the close session is
requested, the drive will finalize the disc.
