摘要:
A control apparatus detects positional information of a head performing writing processing every predetermined time interval, and computes next-sample projected positional information of the head based on the difference between the positional information detected the previous time and the positional information detected the current time, and the current detected positional information for every position information detected. The control apparatus determines whether the computed next-sample projected positional information is greater than a next-sample projected position threshold which is a predetermined threshold. Following this, in the case that determination is made that the next-sample projected positional information is greater than the projected position threshold, the disk control apparatus controls a storage device to stop the writing processing after the writing processing is performed through the end of the sector wherein the writing processing is currently being performed.

A storage device receives and holds a storage medium that is subjected to first servo writing processing for writing servo information, a Gray code of which is offset, from an inner cylinder or an outer cylinder to a predetermined cylinder and, after the first servo writing processing, subjected to second servo writing processing for writing servo information from an opposite direction to the predetermined cylinder and in which Gray codes are written to be offset not to overlap in the first or second servo writing processing and the pieces of servo information having different mark patterns are written in the first servo writing processing and the second servo writing processing. The storage device acquires cylinder information and mark patterns from the servo information written in the held storage medium and controls a position of a head based on the acquired cylinder information and mark patterns.

An amplitude measurement unit measures an amplitude of a read signal from a preamble unit in a servo area of a predetermined frame number m per one rotation of the recording medium for a predetermined cycle number n while increasing an electric power amount distributed to the heater in the state in which the head is positioned to a track on the recording medium, and a mean amplitude calculating unit calculates a mean amplitude from an amplitude measurement value which is measured by the number which is the frame number m multiplied by the cycle number n. A contact determination unit calculates a mean amplitude variation amount per a unit heater electric power amount as a contact determination value, and determines that the head is in contact with the recording medium when the contact determination value is lower than a predetermined threshold value, and a flying height calculating unit which calculates a flying height of the head with respect to the surface of the recording medium from the heater electric power amount at the point when contact is determined.

A head-slap detecting device detects a head slap. The head slap causes a storage medium to be slapped by at least one storage-medium driving unit that performs at least one of reproduction and recording of data from and to the storage medium. The head-slap detecting device includes a detecting unit that detects the head slap by determining whether a first variable gain obtained from a variable gain amplifier that amplifies an output of data reproduced by the storage-medium driving unit exceeds a predetermined threshold.

A head control device for controlling, through thermal expansion of a heater, a position of a head for reading and writing data from and to a storage medium, includes a heater control unit that increases a current supplied to the heater stepwise; and an external-force sample retrieving unit that retrieves sampling values of signals each indicating a magnitude of an external force acting on the head in a moving direction of a head support mechanism. The head control device also includes an external-force evaluating unit that calculates a representative value of the sampling values retrieved by the external-force sample retrieving unit to evaluate the magnitude of the external force every time the heater control unit increases the current; and a contact detecting unit that detects contact between the head and the storage medium by comparing each evaluation result by the external-force evaluating unit with a predetermined threshold value.

A retraction control unit controls a retraction of a head of a storage device to a retraction position apart from a ramp by a predetermined distance. When the head is retracted from the retraction position to the ramp, a speed control unit controls a speed of the head to ascend the ramp to be constant by outputting a preset control signal.
