According to one embodiment, there is provided an information recording apparatus that writes information onto a magnetic recording medium including a plurality of fine magnetic grains. The information recording apparatus includes a random number generation unit, a modulation unit, and a processing unit. The random number generation unit generates a random number bit value. The modulation unit modulates a period of a basic clock according to the random number bit value generated, and generates a modulated clock. The processing unit writes or reads information with respect to the magnetic recording medium in synchronization with the modulated clock generated.

According to one embodiment, there is provided a method of temporarily storing data in a buffer. The method determines whether data written based on sequential writing is of a first type or a second type in data type. The method stores the written data in association with the determined data type in the buffer. The method further controls the buffer so that the data of the first type stored in the buffer may be held in the buffer for a length of time twice as long as time T1 corresponding to one revolution of a disk and the data of the second type stored in the buffer may be held in the buffer for the time T1.

A drive section which moves a head above an information storage medium and a control section are provided, and each track on the information storage medium is made up of alternating first regions for writing in and reading out user information and second regions that store information for the positioning of the head. The control section is provided with a feedback control value determining section for eliminating the difference between the head position and the representative position of the first region, which is an access object, a performing control value determining section for determining the performing control value for the performing control by finding the logical control value associated with the first region where the feedback control value is determined and adding the feedback control value to this logical control value and a performing control section for actually controlling the drive section.

A control system is designed in which a controlled plant is controlled based on output feedback from the controlled plant. An all-pass filter is modeled that is formed of a synthesis of a notch filter compensating for a resonance mode in the control system and the resonance mode. A design controlled plant including the all-pass filter is determined. A controller controls the design controlled plant and includes a weighting function, and, after the weighting function is derived, gain of the weighting function is adjusted using desired gain crossover frequency and phase margin. A phase variable included in a phase-lead weight is determined, and thus the weighting function is determined. H∞ loop shaping is applied to the weighting function and the design controlled plant to obtain an H∞ loop controller.

A learning control unit is provided between a feedback calculating unit and a driving unit. When a period for one medium rotation period is assumed to be TL, an unknown drive current function Irepeat(t) which repeats for a period of time from a start time t=0 for one medium rotation period to an end time t=TL is obtained by a learning algorithm as an approximated function I{circumflex over ( )}repeat(t) that is approximately presumed by a set of the heights Ci of N rectangular functions having interval numbers i=0˜ (N−1) whose time widths are obtained by dividing the period for one medium rotation period into N intervals. After the learning, a learning control signal I{circumflex over ( )}repeat is outputted synchronously with the medium rotation and a feed-forward control is performed. The learning control unit can be provided between a position signal detecting unit and a feedback calculating unit and can learn a position function TESrepeat(t) as an approximated function TES{circumflex over ( )}repeat(t) in a similar manner.

According to one embodiment, a disk storage apparatus includes a write module and a controller. The write module is configured to move a write head over a disk, and to perform the shingled write method, recording data in the first track while erasing data from a part of the second, i.e., adjacent track. The controller is configured to acquire a first head positioning error with respect to the first track and a second head positioning error with respect to the second track. If the first head positioning error exceeds an off-track threshold value, indicating that the data may no longer be maintained in the first and second tracks, the controller inhibits the data writing.

According to one embodiment, a magnetic disk drive comprises a write count memory, a read offset setting module and a controller. The write count memory stores a write count for each track or for each zone on a disk. The read offset setting module sets, in accordance with a write count for an adjacent track to a target track or for a zone to which the adjacent track belongs, an offset from a predetermined position on the target track in a read position in which a head is to be positioned when the head is positioned on the target track for data read. The write count is stored in the write count memory. The controller positions the head in a position shifted from the predetermined position by the set offset.

A patterned media type magnetic storage medium has separated magnetic dots formed a data area having a first magnetic dots and a servo area. The micro position detection portion in the servo area is constructed with first and second dot arrays having a different number of second magnetic dots in the circumference direction and face with the center line that the first magnetic dots of the data area in the magnetic storage medium are disposed, as the axis. The area of the magnetic dot constituting the micro position detection portion of the servo area is small, so the coercive force of the servo area increases. The frequency is changed depending on the number of magnetic dots, and the phase is changed depending on the position of the magnetic dot array in the radius direction with the center line as an axis.

According to an aspect of the embodiment, in a magnetic recording apparatus having a magnetic recording medium of a patterned media system, a voltage generated between both terminals of a magnetic field generating coil in a case that a DC current is supplied to a recording element of a magnetic head is measured by a voltage measuring circuit in order to perform accurate recording at the center of each of magnetic body regions sectioned with non-magnetic body regions. Based on the measured voltage, a change in coil inductance in passage of the magnetic head over a magnetic body region and a non-magnetic body region in a patterned media is detected by a voltage change detecting circuit. A write clock signal which synchronizes with the change in coil inductance is generated by a clock signal generating circuit.
