摘要： Method and apparatus for increasing process yields of data storage devices which store data on media surfaces using read/write heads. An initial linear bit recording density is determined for each head, the linear bit recording density comprising a density at which each head is capable of writing data to and reading data from the corresponding media surface. Defective storage sectors are identified on the media surfaces to determine whether a sufficient number of logical storage sectors are available to meet a predetermined data storage capacity. The linear bit recording density of at least one of the heads is then altered to ensure that the storage device has sufficient logical storage sectors to meet the predetermined capacity.

摘要： Method and apparatus for detecting defects in a magnetic medium of a data handling system. The magnetic medium includes a number of user data wedges each disposed between an adjacent pair of servo data wedges. A predetermined data sequence is written to the user data wedges, and subsequently read to generate a readback signal. A sequence of discrete time sample values are generated from the readback signal. Defects in the medium are detected in relation to the magnitudes of the discrete time samples. A media scan controller outputs a first multi-bit information record having at least one bit composing the address of the user data wedge containing a defect, and a second multi-bit information record having at least one bit composing an address of the defect within the user data wedge. No information is written to the buffer when no defects are identified.

摘要： A recording surface is segmented into a plurality of radial zones each containing a plurality of concentric tracks on which data may be recorded. The recording surface is initially formatted with a data frequency for each zone such that all of the zones have substantially the same data density. The data frequency is reduced for a first zone whose error rate is initially less than the predetermined error rate so that the first zone exhibits an error rate meeting the predetermined error rate. The data frequency for a second zone whose data transfer error factor initially exceeds the predetermined error rate is increased to restore any loss of storage capacity of the recording surface due to the reduced data frequency in the first zone. As a result, the data density in the first zone is substantially less than a nominal data density and the data density in a second zone is substantially greater than the nominal data density. The data storage capacity of the recording surface is at least as great as a minimum data storage capacity.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention include a method and an apparatus for generating an optimal MRO for a zone having a plurality of tracks. A disc drive controller determines the optimum MRO of a zone of tracks by analyzing multiple tracks in the zone with the actuator arm located at a series of offsets relative to the track center. Selected tracks in the zone are written to once. Then the selected tracks in the zone are sequentially read at a first offset, and the corresponding errors recorded. This reading is repeated for each of the offsets until all offsets have been analyzed. Based on the offset, or band of offsets, with the least errors over the selected tracks, the optimum MRO can be selected for the zone. The process can be repeated for each zone and the optimum MRO values stored in an MRO table in the disc drive for use during subsequent read and write operations.

摘要： Method and apparatus for determining a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) value from a readback signal, such as in a data storage device. A readback signal is obtained by a receiver (such as a data transducing head) coupled to a data recovery channel having a variable gain amplifier (VGA) and a threshold detector (TD). The data channel applies a selectable VGA gain value to the readback signal while errors are accumulated using a selectable error detection threshold from the TD. The SNR value is determined at least from a magnitude of the error detection threshold, and preferably from first and second VGA gain values using a linear regression model. The determined SNR value is highly correlated to classical SNR values obtained using external equipment such as an analyzer or oscilloscope, and is advantageously used in automated fashion during high volume manufacturing certification testing.

摘要： In a pattern zero verification test, a data track of a disc drive is read. During the reading of the data track, on-the-fly counting of potential non-zero data bytes (potential count), sectors on which ECC correction has been performed (corrected sector count), and user data bytes on which ECC correction has been performed (corrected byte count) is performed. Next, various conditions of the potential, corrected sector, and corrected byte counts are checked to determine whether the data track includes only zero data bytes.
