According to one embodiment, a self-servo writing method for use in disk drives, which has a first process and a second process. In the first process, a base-servo pattern containing address codes and servo-burst patterns is recorded on a disk medium in units of one-track pitches. In the second process, a drive-servo pattern, which is a spiral servo pattern, is recorded on the disk medium, by using the base-servo pattern and the self-servo writing function of the disk drive.

According to one embodiment, a servo write method for writing servo information to a disk medium used in a disk drive is disclosed. In the procedure of the servo write method, first servo information is spirally written to a disk medium in a clean room before the disk medium is incorporated into the disk drive, then, the disk medium is incorporated into the disk drive, and second servo information is concentrically written to the disk medium already incorporated in the disk drive.

According to one embodiment, a disk drive having a disk, a read head, a servo controller, and a CPU. In the disk, a multi-spiral servo pattern is recorded. The read head reproduces a hexagon-shaped detection signal from the multi-spiral servo pattern. The servo controller generates amplitudes values for respective frames, from the multi-spiral servo pattern. The CPU performs positional-error calculation by using the amplitude values for the frames. Upon detecting a positional change of the head is detected, the CPU performs the positional-error calculation by using the amplitude values generated at the time of replacing the frames with other frames, and corrects the positional error by adding an offset determined from the positional change of the head, to the result of the positional-error calculation.

According to one embodiment, there is to provide a disk drive which calculates an error in the position of a head on the basis of concentric servo patterns. The disk drive has a disk medium on which spiral servo patterns are recorded and a read head which reads the spiral servo patterns from the disk medium. A servo controller reproduces a hexagonal burst signal from the spiral servo patterns read by the read head to generate position data associated with servo burst signals. The CPU uses the position data to perform a position error calculation.

According to one embodiment, a method of writing a target servo pattern constituting concentric servo tracks on a disk medium provided in a disk drive. In the method, a cumulative amplitude value of the waveform of each spiral servo pattern reproduced by the head of the disk drive is calculated, a slope of each spiral servo pattern is calculated from the cumulative amplitude value, and a pitch at which the head should be moved to write the target servo pattern is determined on the basis of the slopes of the spiral servo patterns.
