    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a direct access storage device a high track density and low power consumption at low cost by controlling a servo system by using a corrected position error signal obtained by subtracting filtered data from a position error signal. SOLUTION: A direct access storage device(DASD) 32 includes a disk 34 and, when the disk 34 is rotated by a spindle motor 40, the disk 34 interacts with the head 36 of the end part of an actuator 38. A repeating runout component is stored in the reserve data zone of the disk 34 during manufacturing and read in a RAM 42 during power up. The repeating runout component of a RAM base is subtracted from a position error correcting signal(PES) in a next track-following mode.
