A control system includes a write head and a control module configured to signal the write head to write a servo test track on a rotating medium at a position relative to a reference servo track on the rotating medium. The servo test track is written on the rotating medium subsequent to an interrupt event. The reference servo track having been written to the rotating medium prior to the interrupt event, detects the position of the servo test track relative to the reference servo track and signals the write head to write a new servo track on the rotating medium based on the detected position of the servo test track relative to the reference servo track.
