摘要： A multimedia direct access storage device and a method for transferring source program signals representative of a compressed digital multimedia program to and from the direct access storage device are disclosed. A multimedia program is transmitted from a multimedia server as a custom ordered series of discrete program segments and received by the multimedia direct access storage device, which buffers the compressed program segments for subsequent presentation on a local display monitor. The multimedia direct access storage device is preferably incorporated as a component of a local set-top control system for buffering a predetermined number of compressed program segments received from the multimedia server, some of which may be non-sequentially ordered and others of which may be sequentially ordered. A novel formatting methodology provides for the sequential presentation of the program segments asynchronously distributed on one or more data storage disks disposed in the direct access storage device. A user-definable presentation control window for performing local VCR-type presentation control functions for the portion of a multimedia program buffered in the direct access storage device is also provided through the novel formatting methodology. The novel formatting methodology also provides concurrent presentation and buffering of program segments received from the multimedia server for on-demand viewing of a selected multimedia program.

摘要： A disk for a disk drive data storage device contains embedded track identifying fields which identify a track within a range of tracks, the range being less than the full range of tracks on the disk surface. The full identity of a track during a track seek operation is determined by iteratively assuming a track identity and estimating acceleration of the transducer based on the assumed track identity, until a track identity is found for which estimated acceleration meets some pre-determined threshold. Preferably, embedded servo fields are recorded at angularly spaced intervals on the disk surface, and every Nth servo field contains a Gray code full track identifier, while all servo fields in between contain abbreviated Gray code fields which identify a track within a range of tracks.

摘要： A recording disk contains at least two types of servo sector format, including a first type having a relatively larger track identifying field containing the track number, and a second type having an abbreviated track identifying field identifying a track within a range of tracks, the range being less than the full range of tracks on the disk surface. Preferably, Gray code encodings are used, the first type of track field contains sufficient Gray code bits to identify the ful track number, every Nth servo sector is of the first type, and all servo sectors in between are of the second type, N being at least 2. As a result, the disk area required for track identification is reduced, and the additional disk space available can be used to expand the PES field.

摘要： A magnetoresistive (MR) head of a hard disk drive provides a readback signal from a data storage disk. The readback signal is high pass filtered, amplified, sampled and digitized to obtain a digital readback signal. A thermal component of the digital readback signal is removed from the digital readback signal by an efficient nonlinear process in which an envelope of the digital readback signal is estimated to obtain upper and lower envelope sequences. The upper and lower envelope sequences are averaged to derive the estimated thermal component to be subtracted from the digital readback signal.

摘要： A bar coded magnetic recording pattern uniquely identifying the disk of a disk drive is disposed, at the time the disk is single disk tested and accepted, in a reserved area that is not used for data recording by the disk drive assembly. The identifying recording is disposed in a reserved region that is accessible by the magnetic transducer of the disk drive. The identifying recording may be read to determine the orientation of the disk in the disk drive and may be read to positively identify the disk to permit repair, recall or data transfer from specifically identified disks without shut down and/or disassembly of the disk drives incorporating the designated disks.

摘要： An apparatus and method for estimating one or more pole frequencies of an amplifier circuit, such as a readback signal amplifier circuit implemented in an arm electronics module of a data storage system, are disclosed. A bias signal that biases the read transducer is modulated at first and second modulation frequencies while a readback signal is obtained from a data storage medium using the read transducer. The readback signal is communicated to the amplifier, and an output signal of the amplifier circuit is measured at the respective first and second modulation frequencies. The amplifier pole frequency is determined by computing a square impedance measurement ratio using square magnitudes of the bias signal and the amplifier output signal respectively measured at the first and second modulation frequencies.

摘要： A method and apparatus for optimizing the seek/settle performance of a storage device. The present invention measures the seek/settle performance for each individual head and selects the heads with the best seek/settle performance, i.e., access performance. The invention includes a processor for calculating velocity deviations for each of the plurality of heads to determine a set of suitable seek heads from the plurality of heads, a head selection circuit for switching from a current head to a preferred head from the set of suitable seek heads and an actuator controller for seeking with the preferred head to a virtual track corresponding to a target track. The processor calculates a preferred/target runout difference for smoothing the settle of the preferred head and the head selection circuit switches from the preferred head to a target head aligned with the target track. The preferred/target runout difference comprises the differences between the runout for the preferred head and the target head for N sectors and the preferred/target runout difference is provided to the actuator controller upon calculation by the processor. The head selection circuit switches from the preferred head to a target head aligned with the target track at a predetermined period before the target head is positioned at the target track. The preferred head is a randomly selected head from the set of suitable seek heads. The head selection circuit switches from the preferred head to a target head aligned with the target track for read operations.

摘要： A magnetic disk drive includes redundant data written at a plurality of out of phase angular locations to reduce the latency and enhance performance during a read operation. The loss of recording capacity is reduced by increasing the data density to achieve the same soft error rate standard required for single recording. Dual recording also allows different recording codes to be used at the duplicated locations to thereby have the more highly stressed code words occur at different locations in the data to further reduce the possibility of an error. The redundant recording can be used in one portion of the media and normal recording used in another media portion to enable selection of the recording technique in accordance with the type of data being stored. The size of the normal and redundant recording portions can be controlled by the format operation and the user of the disk drive can intervene to designate the size of the redundant and normal media recording portions effected during the format operation.
