According to an embodiment, a magnetic disk device includes: a magnetic disk; an arm; a support member provided at a distal end of the arm; a magnetic head provided on the support member and configured to access the magnetic disk; a first actuator configured to rotate the arm; a second actuator configured to drive the support member; and one or more processors configured to implement a controller configured to perform seek control of the magnetic head. The controller includes: a feedback controller configured to control a first command value for driving the first actuator so as to reduce an error between a position of the magnetic head and a target position; and an iterative learning controller configured to receive an input value based on the error and output a second command value for driving the second actuator by iterative learning.

Various illustrative aspects are directed to a data storage device, comprising one or more disks; an actuator mechanism configured to position one or more heads proximate to a corresponding disk surface of the one or more disks; and one or more processing devices. The one or more processing devices comprise read/write circuitry which comprises an asynchronous demodulation module. The asynchronous demodulation module is configured to receive demodulated null burst signals based on the selected head reading servo burst fields of the corresponding disk surface; and output, based on the demodulated null burst signals, a radial position signal, indicative of a radial position of the selected head.

Various illustrative aspects are directed to a data storage device, comprising one or more disks; a head, configured to be positioned proximate to a disk surface among the one or more disks; a temperature sensor; and one or more processing devices. The one or more processing devices are configured to: detect, via the temperature sensor, a non-nominal heat dissipation of a portion of the head; and, in response to detecting the non-nominal heat dissipation of the portion of the head, mitigate the non-nominal heat dissipation of the portion of the head.

A multi-layer piezoelectric microactuator assembly has at least one poled and active piezoelectric layer and one poled but inactive piezoelectric layer. The poled but inactive layer acts as a constraining layer in resisting expansion or contract of the first piezoelectric layer thereby reducing or eliminating bending of the assembly as installed in an environment, thereby increasing the effective stroke length of the assembly. Poling only a single layer would induce stresses into the device; hence, polling both piezoelectric layers even though only one layer will be active in use reduces stresses in the device and therefore increases reliability.

A method for enhancing read performance in an ARMR system includes: obtaining CTS information for a plurality of readers in a multi-reader head of the ARMR system, the CTS information defining a relationship between skew angle and CTS between respective combinations of subsets of the readers; determining, as a function of the CTS information, a subset of the readers which provides enhanced read performance among the readers for each of a plurality of skew angles; assigning a weight value to each of a plurality of read signals generated by a corresponding one of the readers for each of the skew angles, the weight value being indicative of a performance of the corresponding one of the readers relative to one another; and decoding information read from at least one target track of a magnetic storage medium being read as a function of the read signals and corresponding weight values.

In one general embodiment, an apparatus includes at least two modules, each of the modules having an array of transducers, wherein the at least two modules are fixed relative to each other, wherein an axis of each array is defined between opposite ends thereof, wherein the axes of the arrays are oriented about parallel to each other, wherein the array of a first of the modules is offset from the array of a second of the modules in a first direction parallel to the axis of the array of the second module such that the transducers of the first module are about aligned with the transducers of the second module in an intended direction of tape travel thereacross; and a mechanism for orienting the modules about an axis orthogonal to the plane in which the arrays reside to control a transducer pitch presented to a tape.

An apparatus includes a controller configured to be coupled to a read/write head. The controller is configured to perform various operations including detecting a change in a time interval difference between servo sectors of a servo marked recording medium, converting the change to an offset signal that compensates for the change, and positioning the read/write head relative to the servo mark recording medium in response to the offset signal. The change in the time interval difference is representative of disk slip.
