摘要: The present invention is directed to a ramp load disc drive storage system having improved loading performance and a reduced likelihood of failure due to stiction and damage caused by contact between a slider and a disc surface during ramp load operations. The slider generally includes wear-resistive pads which allow for improved loading performance and reduce stiction between the slider and a disc surface. The pads also allow the ramp load disc drive storage system to be operated in a ramp load/unload mode or a contact start/stop mode. Additionally, a method of operating a ramp load disc drive is provided where the slider is loaded above a disc surface from a ramp prior to the disc reaching a full operating speed.

摘要: A disc storage system includes a rotating disc and a transducer. The transducer is carried on a slider which is supported by an armature. The armature is used to move the slider radially across the disc surface whereby information may be read from or written to the disc surface of the transducer. The slider includes an air bearing surface which faces the disc surface. As the disc rotates, the air bearing surface causes the slider to “fly” over the disc surface. Pads are provided on the air bearing surface to improve operational characteristics of the system and texturing is provided to a landing zone region on the disc surface.

摘要: A method of measuring fly height of a read/write head to form a fly height profile for use in measuring fly height of the read/write head relative to a disc of a disc drive. A fixed source write signal is applied to an inductive element of the read/write head, generating a magnetic flux field with a stray magnetic flux field portion. A magnetoresistive element of the read/write head couples with the magnetic flux field producing an initial field strength signal. As the disc rotates, the read/write head flies there above decreasing the density of the stray magnetic flux field portion thereby decreasing the amplitude of the field strength signal. The decreasing amplitude of the field strength signal is calibrated to a predetermined operating fly height profile to correlate fly height of the read/write head to the decreasing amplitude of the field strength field, which forms the fly height profile.

摘要: A magnetic disc storage system includes a magnetic storage disc and a transducing head. During periods of inactivity the transducing head is dithered whereby the head is moved to tracks on the disc according to a number of criteria. The criteria includes wear reduction, power reduction, avoidance of textured zones, head cycling, increased fly height and clearing of debris carried on the head.
