A dual storage apparatus is provided that comprises a first and a second memories for respectively retaining a set of identical data and a selector for selecting either of the two (2) sets of the data respectively read from the first and the second memory based on a read control signal inputted into the selector, having a request management unit for, when the read control signal has been inputted, attaching an identifier for identifying the read control signal to the inputted read control signal and outputting the signal and the identifier; and a plurality of memory control units for each of the first and the second memories. The dual storage apparatus detects a synchronization error by verifying coincidence of the identifier attached by the request management unit and controls the selector such that the data from a system from which no synchronization error has been detected.

A method and apparatus for recovering from operation errors arising in an information recording and reproducing unit using a head with a GMR sensor is described. The read and write operations of the unit comprise executing a first error recovery procedure for recovering the operation error, executing a first GMR evaluation procedure for evaluating the performance of the GMR sensor when the operation error cannot be recovered by the first error recovery procedure, and applying a resetting pulse to the GMR sensor in accordance with the first GMR evaluation procedure.

In accordance with the present invention, the initialization for orienting the magnetized directions of the free layers of GMR heads (mounted on the diagonally shaded surface of sliders 14) by an external magnetic field is again executed also for the opposite direction, thereby to increase the yield of the GMR heads. Further, it is determined whether the magnetized direction of the pinned layer of GMR heads can be once reversed to the opposite direction, thereby to select damaged GMR heads at an early stage. Then, by performing a reset while performing a quasi-static test for seeing the read back response of the GMR head after restoring the magnetized direction of the pinned layer to a positive rotation, a safe and efficient reset is executed. The reset can be executed not only by applying only a pulse, but also while providing an external magnetic field in the pinning direction, or only by giving a high magnetic field. A tool 500 can be commonly used for the initialization, reset, or read back response through each process level. For the quasi-static test, coils 531, 532, and 533 are selectively used as Helmholz coils.

A magnetoresistive (MR) reproduction element is positioned during data recording, data reproduction, and formatting so that its total range of movement is 3/2 times a range of movement (microjogging) from the location of the reproduction element in data recording to the location of the reproduction element in data reproduction. The total range of movement is centered within a range where the detection of positional error of the reproduction element changes linearly. Therefore, in the respective data recording, data reproduction and formatting processes, microjogging is performed and the detection of positional error changes linearly for each of an off-track OF.sub.W in data recording, an off-track OF.sub.R in data reproduction, and an off-track OF.sub.F in formatting. Accordingly, the characteristics of the MR reproduction element can be effectively used to a maximum degree and information can be reproduced without being undetected or erroneously detected.

A controller 40 of an HDC 30 is connected to a drive 28, and an arm is rotated through a predetermined angle. A magnetic head 20 on the arm comprises a recording element and a reproduction element. A bias current is supplied to the magnetic head 20 from the controller 40 through a driver 36A and a switching circuit 32A, and the magnetic field of the disk 18A is detected in a detector 38A through a switching circuit 32A. The switching circuit 32A inverts the polarity of a current applied to the magnetic head 20A, by a signal from the controller 40 corresponding to a skew angle. Accordingly, the direction of the bias magnetic field is changed, the effective sensitivity position of the reproduction element approaches the recording element, and off-track can be reduced.

Disclosed is a disk drive having at least one disk. An actuator arm carriers at least two sliders which are positioned over the first and second surface of the disk. The actuator arm moves the sliders to various selected positions over disks so that representations of data can be read from or written into the tracks of the disk. Each slider includes at least one magnetic transducer or magnetic head. The magnetic head is actually passed over the track in the disk during a read or write operation. The heads are shifted slightly with respect to a line perpendicular to the disk surface to minimize or reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic coupling between the heads located on the first and second surface of the disk. In other words, the heads are intentionally misaligned to increase the distance between the two heads and to reduce crosstalk and electromagnetic coupling between the two heads.
