    Abstract: A device includes a servo controller that includes or that is coupled to memory. The memory stores multiple distinct disturbance control schemes. The servo controller is configured to select and implement one of the disturbance control schemes in response to receiving a command from a host. The servo controller can be implemented on a system on a chip.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for compensating for magnetoresistive (MR) jog offset direct current (DC) drift in a disc drive are described. In one embodiment, a method may include determining an occurrence of NOS, for example, by monitoring disc slip, to determine when the method should proceed. An MR jog offset DC drift amount is determined for each head of the disc drive. One of several approaches may be employed for determining the MR jog offset DC drift amount. By determining an MR jog offset DC drift amount for each head, a compensation profile is determined for the drive. The determined compensation profile may then be used during operation of the disc drive to compensate for the DC drift. One of several approaches may be employed for compensating based on the compensation profile.

    Abstract: The technology disclosed herein pertains to a system and method for managing write failures in a disc drive. Implementations disclosed herein provide a method including monitoring write fault events per sector for a storage device, in response to a write fault event, updating a write fault repeat count table, wherein the repeat count table tracks a number of write fault repeat counts per sector, comparing a write fault repeat count for a sector to a predetermined threshold write fault repeat count, and in response to determining that the write fault repeat count for a sector is above the predetermined threshold write fault repeat count, performing a write-reassign operation.

    Abstract: The disclosed technology provides a system and method that improves interlaced magnetic recording (IMR) data throughput in vibration in storage systems. In one implementation, a method includes determining whether there are write retry operations in the IMR storage device, determining whether bottom track caching space is available responsive to determining whether there are write retry operations in the IMR storage device, performing a vibration detection scheme to identify vibration events responsive to determining whether bottom track caching space is available, determining if a number of vibration events is above a predetermined threshold, and writing data to available bottom track caching space responsive to determining if the number of vibration events is above a predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: Apparatus and method for managing data transfers in a data storage device with rotational media that can be rotated at different speeds. In some embodiments, a non-volatile main memory is formed on a rotatable medium accessed by a moveable data transducer. A media cache provides a non-volatile data storage area. A control circuit directs writes to the main memory as the medium is rotated at a first speed and directs reads from the main memory as the medium is rotated at a higher, second speed. Writes during the rotation of the medium at the second speed are directed to the media cache instead of to the main memory so that no data are written to the main memory at the second speed. The media cache may also be located on the medium or may be formed from solid-state semiconductor memory.
