摘要
A data storage device is disclosed comprising a voice coil motor (VCM) having a resonance frequency, a first disk surface comprising a first set of servo sectors written at a frequency less than twice the VCM resonance frequency, and a second disk surface comprising a second set of servo sectors circumferentially offset from the first set of servo sectors and written at a frequency less than twice the VCM resonance frequency. An access of the first disk surface is performed by reading at least one of the first set of servo sectors to generate a first position error signal (PES), reading at least one of the second set of servo sectors to generate a second PES, and controlling the VCM based on the first PES and the second PES to position a first head over the first disk surface while accessing the first disk surface.
說明書
Data storage devices such as disk drives comprise a disk and a head connected to a distal end of an actuator arm which is rotated about a pivot by a voice coil motor (VCM) to position the head radially over the disk. The disk comprises a plurality of radially spaced, concentric tracks for recording user data sectors and embedded servo sectors. The embedded servo sectors comprise head positioning information (e.g., a track address) which is read by the head and processed by a servo controller to control the velocity of the actuator arm as it seeks from track to track.
