If not...all NeXT ODs are single sided. It's very obvious if you look at the disk on both sides. One side--the one that's supposed to be the bottom--reflects light and makes a rainbow pattern ala CDs and the top side doesn't. The bottom side contains MO material that are divided into 16 sector slices. The top contains no MO.
