摘要： A method and an apparatus for optimizing movement of a disk drive's head actuator arm away from a magnetic latch that holds the arm in a parked position at the Inner Diameter (ID) of a disk. Current energizing of the arm's actuator motor moves the arm away from the magnetic latch and is controlled to compensate for any change in magnetic holding force. When the disk drive is powered up, a current pulse of one polarity is applied to the actuator motor. This initial current pulse normally moves the arm away from the magnetic latch and is followed by a current pulse of the opposite polarity to decelerate movement of the arm. If this initial sequence fails to move the arm away from the magnetic latch, the magnitude of the two current pulses is increased, and the opposite polarity pulse is followed by a small magnitude current of the one polarity. The read signal from the head is monitored to indicate that the arm has moved into the disk's central databand area, and then into the disk's Outer Diameter (OD) area. At this point, the magnitude of current of the one polarity is increased in small steps to gently bring the arm into contact with the disk drive's OD crash stop. The current of the one polarity is then decreased in small steps, and the arm gently moves away from the OD crash stop. The head signal is monitored until the head is positioned at a selected track.

摘要： A multi-track density direct access storage device is disclosed. In accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a direct access storage device for data storage within a data processing system comprises a housing, a rotatable spindle, at least one disk, and several heads. The disk is fixedly mounted to the rotatable spindle, and the rotatable spindle is rotated by a motor within the housing. A first disk surface of the disk has a first track density and a second disk surface of the disk has a second track density; wherein the second track density is preferably greater than the first track density. Each of the several heads contains a transducer to read and write information from and to the disk during the disk rotation. Under this configuration, the lower storage density first disk surface is utilized to store data that are frequently accessed while the higher storage density second disk surface is for storage capacity supplementation such that the total data storage capacity of the direct access storage device can be increased without degrading the data-accessing performance.

摘要： An apparatus and method for correcting for track misregistration when a slider or head assembly contains a separate read element and write element. The offset is determined at a first position and at a second position of the actuator arm assembly. From these offsets a constant and a multiplier are determined for determining an offset as a function of the cylinder location. Also disclosed is a method and apparatus for minimizing distance traveled to prevent misregistration when repositioning between the read element and a write element. The read element is intentionally offset from the write element at an angle so as to minimize the distance traveled across the disk.

摘要： In a ultra high density, multiple-disk drive, track switches within a cylinder of tracks as well as track switches to tracks on other cylinders both require a movement of the head stack actuator. Track switching latency in such a disk drive is reduced by overlapping pre-movement portions of the track switching process with the data transfer operation of the currently active recording head. In addition, post-movement portions of the track switching process are overlapped with the movement of the heads so that the next selected read/write head may begin a data transfer operation immediately upon arrival at the next track. Further, the pre-movement and post-movement portions of the track-switch process may be overlapped with low displacement movement of the read/write heads relative to the currently active track or the next track.

摘要： A method and apparatus are provided for variable spindle rotation speed in a direct access storage device (DASD). The direct access storage device (DASD) includes a multi-phase, brushless, direct current (DC) spindle motor. Speed and commutation control signals are applied to a plurality of spindle motor drivers for normally operating the plurality of spindle motor drivers in saturation mode while performing read and write operations. A spindle rotational speed is detected and compared with a predetermined spindle speed range. Responsive to the detected spindle rotational speed being within said predetermined spindle speed range, normal operations of the direct access storage device (DASD) are enabled. One or more write sync fields are provided on each surface of a magnetic disk media. The write sync field is used for timing write operations in the direct access storage device.
