Zusammenfassung:	A device, record carrier ( 11 ) and method for recording information on a track ( 9 ) of the record carrier ( 11 ) is described. The record carrier ( 11 ) contains a disc information area with information about the record carrier ( 11 ), such as for example a write strategy for that record carrier ( 11 ). The device has disc information reading means ( 35 ) for reading the disc information area. The disc information area further contains extended information blocks. The extended information block have a block version number and additional parameters. The block version number defines how the additional parameters are to be interpreted. In this manner a more flexible backwards compatibility system is realized. Drives which are able to interpret the additional parameters of an extended information block can chose to use the additional parameters in that block. Older drives use other blocks or fall back to the first basic part of the disc information area.
