    摘要: A method and means is described for writing data on a recording medium, such as a disk or tape, containing servo samples in such manner that the number of servo samples is increased with a minimal increase in overhead (non-data) regions. The tracks on the medium are divided into a plurality of maxi sections, each of which contains all fields with servo and associated overhead information and also a data field. At least one micro servo section containing only a portion of said information is located within each data field.
    As each micro servo section passes by an associated recording head, writing and reading of data is temporarily interrupted, but resumed when the micro servo section moves beyond the head, in such manner as to require minimal resynchronisation of said data during reading.
    Using a phase continuous clock, data is written in both portions of a data field to either side of each micro servo section in one pass of the disk or tape relative to the head. The micro servo sections contain no timing reference address mark and require no data encoder/decoder flush or synchronisation byte to resume reading in the portion of the data field following each micro servo section.

    摘要: Servo information is located within one of the data sectors of a record disk and is in the form of a pattern of radially spaced-apart segments (51, 52, 53, 61, 62, 63) , each segment overlapping a number of data tracks and comprising magnetic transitions which increase in frequency with distance from the centre of the disk to provide a digital head position error signal (PES). A similar segment (31, 32, 33) is located in each of the other data sectors around the perimeter of the disk to provide track profile information so that a head positioning system can compensate for disk runout and distortion. The disk drive can include means for eliminating the effect of the amplitude of the readback signal from the servo and profile segments on the head positioning system, thus ensuring a reliable PES at all radial locations on the disk and allowing interchangeability of disks among disk drives.

    摘要: A sector servo, zone bit recording disk drive (202) includes a sector architecture in which the recording head (208) locates and identifies data sectors (254) without using data ID fields, but instead using information obtained from electronic storage (212,215) and from servo sectors (220) which need not be adjacent to the data sectors. The tracks contain servo information and data, but not data sector ID information. The tracks in each zone are circumferentially divided into segments. Included in each segment is a number of data regions separated from one another by servo sectors. The data regions may contain partial data sectors and complete data sectors. The format information provided to identify and locate data sectors, including ones whose region locations are not adjacent to servo sectors, includes an entry for each region in the section. Each entry includes the lengths of the first and last data sections in the region, whether the sectors represented by those sections are split between two regions, the total number of data sectors in the region, and the sector number of the first data sector in the region. The information provided in the servo sectors consists of a servo sector number or other indicia which enables the disk drive to determine the position of the recording head and begin reading or writing immediately upon settling on-track and without incurring a latency penalty.
