Best Answer

Logical erase of a CD is the rewriting of the directory, so that it seems to be empty. Just like with magnetic disc drives, this does not necessarily result in rewriting the data blocks, and the data can be retrieved with a raw data block reader program, such as ISOBuster.

If the data are sensitive, erase should be a physical format instead of a logical format. However, it should be noted that no rewrite of data is truly unrecoverable - there are high tech means of retrieving the data, such as reading the noise left over from the edge of the track.
