With BD-RE there are three format types : 00h, 30h and 31h.

30h offers several sizes with defect management. Usually there are three

Other format types have their certification intensity controlled by
a pair of bits: CmpList and DCRT.
CmpList resides in CDB byte 1 as bit 3. DCRT resides in the payload byte 1

certification but maintaining the list of known defects.

With BD-RE format 00h, the default is specified to be Quick Reformat,
