We tried various things at different times, looking for reliability as well as protection value. I vaguely remember we tried sync counting (long syncs), illegal GCR (looking for a a byte which had different values on repeated reads), and even track to track synchronization (like I first used on DiskMaker's protection) (Yes, I know, the irony :p). We also checked to see if tracks were written in one pass (no breaks) and played with non-standard disk densities. Eventually we abandoned many of these protections as they caused compatibility problems with some drives. |
