A system for reading data from a storage medium. The system includes a reader and a data determination circuit. The reader is configured to receive a first signal from a first position relative to the storage medium and read a second signal from a second position relative to the storage medium. Each of the first signal and the second signal includes a combination of first data stored in a first track and second data stored in a second track. The data determination circuit is configured to determine third data stored at a predetermined position using the combination of the first data stored in the first track and the second data stored in the second track as received in the first signal and the combination of the first data stored in the first track and the second data stored in the second track as received in the second signal.

A system for tracking a position error of a read/write head. The read/write head is configured to read data recorded to a data layer of a recording medium and read servo information recorded to a dedicated servo layer of the recording medium. To read the servo information, the read/write head is configured to read, from a first track, a first servo signal including first servo bursts of a predetermined frequency, and read, from a second track adjacent to the first track, a second servo signal including second servo bursts of the predetermined frequency. The first servo bursts are orthogonal to the second servo bursts. A position error signal determination circuit is configured to determine the position error using at least one of the first servo signal and the second servo signal.

Methods and architecture for monitoring hard disk drive operation is provided. The hard disk drive system provided includes a spindle, a head and a disk with a disk medium including a buried servo layer having a first frequency of data on a first track and a second frequency of data on a second track, the second track adjacent to the first track. The method includes the steps of writing a wide track pattern having a predetermined frequency on a track of a hard disk drive medium, generating a readback signal by reading the pattern from the track, processing the readback signal by mixing the readback signal with a reference signal to obtain a mixed signal having a summed signal and a difference signal, and filtering the mixed signal by a filter centered around the difference signal to generate a measurement signal corresponding to a relative speed change of the spindle and a head-to-disk motion. In addition, filtering a readback signal generated by the head when positioned at the middle of the first track and the second track with a first filter centered at the first frequency and a second filter centered at the second frequency is used to generate signals for determining spindle speed variation, spindle speed jitter, and relative head-disk vibration in the downtrack direction, for synchronizing writing in Two Dimensional Magnetic Recording (TDMR) and for measuring continuous flying height information based on Wallace equations.
