A location within a cycle is determined by reading a portion of a cyclic bit sequence, the bit sequence containing several interspersed bit-group sets that each contain a plurality of series that each consist of several consecutively-placed identical bit-groups. On a data surface in a disc drive, each bit group can be stored and accessed in unused bits of each servo sector's digital portion.

Track closure errors written into servo sectors of an information track of a disc of a disc drive are resolved from a position control signal generated by a servo control circuit of a data storage device by steps comprising: determining a value for the track closure error from a position error signal, establishing a track closure profile based on the value of the track closure error, and injecting the track profile into the servo control circuit as a feed forward compensation input for the position error signal to resolve the track closure error from the position control signal.

Steps for isolating and correcting total written-in repeatable run-out error written into servo sectors of a disc drive include, determining a total repeatable run-out error value for each servo sector, isolating a repeatable error value component of the total written-in repeatable run-out error value for each servo sector, removing the repeatable error value component from total written-in repeatable run-out error value to provide a non-repeatable error value component of the total written-in repeatable run-out error value for each servo sector, providing both the repeatable and non-repeatable error value components to a processor for generation of compensation signals, and applying the compensation signals into a servo control circuit of control loop of the disc drive using compensation circuits to compensate for each component of the total written-in repeatable run-out error.

Written-in runout due to vibration of the cage of a spindle motor of a disc drive is detected by identifying an initial cage frequency value of the motor. A written-in magnitude of successive servo burst closures, D(nc), is read over a plurality of tracks, and a maximum servo burst closure D(ncp) is identified from the plurality of read servo bursts. A magnitude of the cage frequency at a servo sector n0 is calculated based on a difference between the read magnitudes of the servo burst closures at servo sectors nc and nc+1, and a phase of the cage frequency is calculated based on the magnitude of the written-in cage frequency at servo sector n0. The profile, in the form of cage frequency, maximum servo burst closure magnitude, and initial phase, is stored in a memory or table for each of a plurality of radial zones of tracks. The profile is combined with a position error signal and applied to the controller in a feed forward scheme to adjust the position of the head based on the written-in runout.
