    Abstract: A method for calibrating a hard drive having a heat-assisted magnetic recording head is provided. The method includes performing, across an increasing temperature ramp, a first set of write/read operations using the head, performing, across a decreasing temperature ramp, a second set of write/read operations using the head, generating performance data associated with the head based on the first set of write/read operations and the second set of write/read operations, calculating a comparison value based on the performance data associated with the head and performance data associated with a plurality of heads, and adjusting an operating parameter value of the head based on the comparison value exceeding a threshold, the adjusted operating parameter reducing a likelihood that a laser of the head will exhibit write instability.

    Abstract: The present application discloses a transducer head comprising a read element that reads data from a storage media and an asperity sensor that detects a dimension of an asperity on a surface of the storage media using a temperature change at the asperity sensor. The asperity may be one or both of a void in the surface of the storage media and a protrusion from the surface of the storage media.
