Abstract:
A data storage device is disclosed comprising a disk comprising a plurality of tracks, a head, and an actuator configured to actuate the head over the disk. An adjusted seek time is determined to seek the head from a first track to a second track, and an adjusted coast velocity and an adjusted coast time of the seek is determined based on the adjusted seek time and a power consumption of the seek when a driving current applied to the actuator is substantially constant during at least one of an acceleration time and a deceleration time of the seek.
