    Abstract: A direct access storage device includes at least one disk mounted for rotation about an axis and having opposed disk surfaces for storing data. A magneto-resistive (MR) transducer head is mounted for movement across each respective disk surface for writing to and for reading data signals from the disk surface. Each MR transducer head includes a write element and a read element. A preamplifier, associated with the MR transducer head, amplifies read and write signals of the read element and the write element. A flex cable couples the read and write signals between the preamplifier and the MR transducer heads. The flex cable includes a common read return signal line for each sequential pair of the MR transducer heads.

    Abstract: In a magnetic data storage device having data recorded in tracks on a media surface and including at least one magnetoresistive (MR) transducer read heads, the adaptive control method for the read head bias current involves determining an optimised bias current value for each MR head. The optimised values are stored, and the active MR head is supplied with a bias current in accordance with the stored value. The optimised bias current value is periodically re-determined for each MR head, and the stored bias current values are revised to correspond with the new optimised bias current values. The bias current values are stored on a disk media surface and are transferred from disk storage to random access memory during the power up sequence of the device.
