A holographic storage media incorporates a holographic recording layer for
storing holographic data and a DVD reflective layer for storing control
information. The DVD reflective layer is positioned within the
holographic storage media relative to the holographic recording layer to
enable individual optical access to the holographic recording layer via a
data laser light for processing the holographic data and individual
optical access to the DVD reflective layer via an information laser light
for processing the control information. The holographic recording layer
and the DVD reflective layer may be physically separated by one or more
intermediate reflective layers. The data laser light and the information
laser light may differ in one or more optical characteristics. The
holographic recording layer and the DVD reflective layer may be optically
accessed by the respective laser lights through different light
transparent faces of the holographic storage media.
