摘要:
A recording apparatus capable of securely reading out data for causing a head to follow along circular tracks set virtually. Therefore, on-track control along the virtual tracks is possible by the conversion data on the discoid record medium even when, for example, the printed circuit board in a recording apparatus has been replaced.

There are provided a storage apparatus and a computer-readable recording medium, on whose storage areas, servo frames are arranged at uniform intervals in a spoke-like pattern. Each of the servo frames has an index bit storing section storing, as an index bit, part of an index pattern, which is operable to identify a storage area. The apparatus and the recording medium have a storage area recognizing unit for recognizing the storage areas based on the index bits, which are obtained by an index bit obtaining unit. The index bits, stored one in each of the index bit storing sections of the servo frames, are adapted to form, when being sequentially arranged, an index bit string in which such an index pattern repeatedly appears.

A magnetic disk incorporated into a magnetic disk device is divided radially into a plurality of areas. An inner-circumference area has servo information written thereon at a low frequency. An outer-circumference area has servo information written thereon at a high frequency. The magnetic disk device creates concentric tracks on the magnetic disk with a magnetic disk rotation center as the center of the concentric tracks and selects a dividing track that acts as a demarcation for switching the area from which servo information will be read. The magnetic disk device then deletes all the servo information that is not going to be read in each of the areas divided by the dividing track.

A disk device performs position control of a head. An acquiring unit acquires correction information and check information from a disk for checking the correction information. A judging unit judges whether the correction information acquired should be used for correcting position information recorded in the disk, based on the correction information acquired and the check information acquired.

An information storage apparatus includes a disc-shaped recording medium in which control marks aligned in a predetermined rule are recorded, a head contacting or approaching a recording medium surface to reproduce/record information of the recording medium and detecting the control marks, a head driving section holding the head to move the head in a direction of coming near or away to/from a recording medium rotation center, a driving force control section controlling a driving force for head driving section, a driving time control section controlling a driving time for the head driving section using an interval of the detection of the plural control marks as a time unit, and a driving force correcting section obtaining a difference between an ideal interval based on the rule of the control marks and an actual interval of the control marks to correct the control of the driving force based on the difference.

Upon recording, a clearance control unit performs preheating by an added control value (BR) of a base heater control value B and an adjustment heater control value R and switches that to value B when it reaches a target sector to perform write. Upon reproduction, preheating is performed by the value (BR) and the value (BR) is maintained when it reaches a target sector to perform read. A correction processing unit detects contact between the head and a medium surface while increasing the value R from a predetermined initial value Ro, and sets a new calculated base heater control value B, and value Ro as the adjustment heater control value R. Write assist adjustment in which the measured adjustment heater control value R is adjusted to a heater control value that improves characteristic deterioration immediately after recording is started wherein preheating is switched to write heating is performed.
摘要:
There is provided a head control method controlling move of a head on a discoidal recording medium including the steps of: partitioning the discoidal recording medium which has position information recorded thereon at radially equal spacing into a plurality of zones; and demodulating the position information using a coefficient set for each of the zones.
