Self-writing of servo patterns in disk drives
Patrick Moran,Tim Everett,Peter McEwen,Mike Moser,Stan Shepherd,Eduardo Veiga,Murat Erkocevic,Bill R. Baker +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a self-servo writing system for a disk drive by transferring a servo reference pattern by magnetic printing onto at least one storage surface of a reference disk, wherein a resulting printed reference pattern includes embedded servo information providing servo timing and transducer head position information.
Patent
Method of self-servo writing in a disk drive using a spiral pattern
Stan Shepherd,Nathan J. Hays +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a disk drive includes a head and a disk, spiral patterns are located on the disk, and the disk drive self-writes servo patterns on disk using the spiral patterns as a reference for servoing the head.
Patent
Method of self-servo writing in a disk drive using multiple timing windows
Stan Shepherd,Nathan J. Hays +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a disk drive includes a head and a disk, spiral patterns are located on the disk, and the disk drive self-writes servo patterns on disk using the spiral patterns as a reference for servoing the head.
Patent
Servo writing using radially overlapped servo segments
TL;DR: In this article, initial servo data are written to a storage medium as a series of radially overlapped spiral segments, and the final data are thereafter written to the medium while concurrently servoing on said overlapped segments.
Patent
Self-servo writing using staged patterning
Stan Shepherd,S.C. Smith,Yu Sun +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a method for writing first servo data to a medium, detecting a velocity integrated position of the first servos, and then writing second servos in relation to the detected position.
