According to one embodiment, a magnetic disk device including a disk, a head which writes data to the disk and reads data from the disk, and a controller which sets a first DOL for a first sector group and a second DOL for a second sector group to different values, the first sector group including one or more first sectors and a first parity sector, the first sectors which allow an error correction process to be performed for each track based on the first parity sector, and are continuously arranged in a circumferential direction of the disk from the first parity sector, the second sector group including one or more second sectors which allow no error correction process to be performed for each track, and are continuously arranged in the circumferential direction.

A memory system includes a memory device, a command clock (CK_t clock) that provides a first clock signal at a first frequency, and a data path clock (WCK_t clock) that provides a second clock signal at a second frequency different than the first frequency. Data path circuitry is synchronized with the WCK_t clock and provides an error detection code (EDC) hold pattern during an idle state. EDC hold pattern synchronization logic synchronizes a start of transmission of the EDC hold pattern synchronous to the CK_t clock.

Methods, apparatuses and systems for detecting defective sectors on a recording medium. A defective sector detector apparatus comprises an error-corrected ECC symbol number calculator and a defective sector determination unit. The error-corrected ECC symbol number calculator is configured to count a total number of error correcting code (“ECC”) symbols that are error-corrected in data read from data sectors on a track of a recording medium of the storage device. The defective sector determination unit is configured to receive the total number of ECC symbols that are error-corrected for a data sector from the error-corrected ECC symbol number calculator and determine whether the total number of ECC symbols that are error-corrected exceeds a threshold value. If it is determined that the total number of ECC symbols that are error-corrected exceeds the threshold value, the defective sector determination unit outputs information indicating the data sector to be a defective sector.

A storage device includes a storage medium having a plurality of data tracks. At least one data track of the plurality of data tracks includes a number of super parity sectors. The number of super parity sectors selected for the at least one data tracks is selected based on a distance between an inner diameter of the storage medium and the data track. The number of super parity sectors provides error correction code for the at least one data track.

The present disclosure describes systems and techniques relating to storage devices, such as storage devices that employ Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR). According to an aspect of the described systems and techniques, a device includes: circuitry configured to write stored data and parity data to discrete portions of a Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) track in a SMR storage device; and circuitry configured to recover stored data for one of the discrete portions of the SMR track using the parity data and the stored data read from remaining ones of the discrete portions of the SMR track.

Data storage devices using a two-level ECC scheme are described. Embodiments of the invention allow the recovery of sectors in a squeezed group of tracks in a that includes both a single track level ECC scheme and a track band ECC scheme that functions across the set of tracks in the band. The track band ECC scheme uses additional parity information calculated using input data from multiple tracks to allow correction across tracks.

An information recording medium includes a lead-in area and a data area for storing contents information. The lead-in area includes a first lead-in information area and a second lead-in information area. The first lead-in information area corresponds to a first playback mode. The second lead-in information area corresponds to a second playback mode different from the first playback mode. The first lead-in information area has a first depth and is designed for storing lead-in information related to the contents information stored in the data area. The second lead-in information area includes pre-pits having a second depth greater than the first depth. The pre-pits represent predetermined information, such as information of copyright protection, related to the contents information stored in the data area.
摘要:
Address information that has been error correction encoded is recorded on a second version of a recording medium after being transformed such that such that the address decoding cannot be performed by a playback device that is not compatible with the second version of the recording medium. The address decoding for the second version of the recording medium cannot be performed by the incompatible playback device (for example, a playback device that was manufactured to be compatible only with a first version of the recording medium). In other words, in the playback device that is not compatible with the second version of the recording medium, a state is created in which address errors cannot be corrected, so access is impossible (recording and playback are impossible).
