    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a disk drive and a disk drive where the width of the read element and the width of the write element are both measured at servo-writing time and the track pitch of the disk drive is set on the basis of those measurements. Disk drives with superior head width combinations are servo-written with a narrower track pitch in order to have a higher storage capacity. Disk drives with inferior head width combinations are detected before servo-writing so that the disk drive may be servo-written with wider track pitch rather than with a nominal track pitch that results in a subsequent drive failure during initial burn-in (IBI). The heads are used more efficiently in that heads that are more capable are used to their ability and less capable heads that would otherwise be disposed of are used at all.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a disk drive where the width of the read element is measured at servo-writing time in order to establish a write unsafe (WUS) limit corresponding to a maximum distance during writing that the write element is permitted to move radially offtrack from the centerline of a data track before writing is disabled. The method includes the steps of measuring a width of the read element with a servo track writer and determining a write unsafe (WUS) limit based on the data track pitch and the measured width of the read element. Varying the WUS limit on a drive-by-drive basis enhances the performance of some drives that would otherwise have capability that goes unused.

    Abstract: Embedded servo sectors within a data track of a hard disk drive including a rotating data storage disk and a closed loop rotary actuator structure for positioning a data transducer head relative to the data track are written by a method including the steps of positioning the rotary actuator structure relative to the data track with a laser-interferometer-based servo writer and writing a pattern of circumferentially sequential, radially offset fine position bursts within each servo sector with the data transducer head, this step including writing-in undetermined position errors within each pattern being written, moving the disk drive to a self scan environment away from the servo writer, operating the rotary actuator structure in closed loop for following the data track by reference to the servo burst pattern, extracting the undetermined position error from each pattern thereby to iteratively determine written-in position errors, generating burst correction values from the determined written-in position errors, and writing the burst correction values to the data track for later use by the closed loop rotary actuator structure during following of the data track to remove the written-in position errors.

    Abstract: Servo data, including three types of servo patterns distinguishable by phase, are stored in concentric servo tracks on a magnetic information storage disk. Each servo track includes a plurality of only one type of pattern, with consecutive tracks arranged in a repeating sequence of the three servo pattern types. For phase recognition, the pattern types further are arranged in a repeating sequence of angular sectors, each sector having a plurality of but one type of pattern. The servo patterns in a given storage track thus are always angularly offset from the servo patterns in the next adjacent tracks. This permits the use of servo patterns having a radial dimension greater than the separation between adjacent tracks, increasing servo signal reliability and transducer dynamic range.

    Abstract: A magnetic disk comprises a data area and a single index servo sector area embedded in the data area. The servo sector has three or more servo information pattern sections formed side by side in the direction of data tracks in the data area. The servo information pattern sections each have a plurality of servo information bit cells formed in a predetermined pattern in a direction perpendicular to the direction of data tracks. The servo information bit cells are used to produce a position signal for positioning a read/write head. A servo system for positioning the read/write head averages a plurality of position signals obtained from the servo information pattern sections and uses the averaged position signal for positioning the read/write head.

The second area is disposed after the first area in a write and read direction along the circumferential direction, and second information including a burst pattern is written in the second area. The plurality of first servo sectors includes a plurality of second servo sectors and a plurality of third servo sectors. The circumferential length of a first area included in each of the plurality of third servo sectors is longer than the circumferential length of a first area included in each of the plurality of second servo sectors.
