    Abstract: A device for processing data recorded on a tape medium includes a first control part that controls a read head to read specific data recorded in a first area among data recorded in a first format on the tape medium. Data in the first format is recorded at a first recording density. The device further includes a second control part that controls a write head to write the specific data in a second area different from the first area of the tape medium and to write the specific data in a second format in a third area different from the second area of the tape medium. Data in the second format is recorded at a second recording density different from the first recording density. Moreover, the device may include a recording part for recording specific information that specifies a read position of other data among data recorded in the first format on the tape medium.

    Abstract: According to one aspect, methods and systems for determining the position of a recording head using existing data structures on magnetic storage media are provided. In one example, a recording head writes data to an active track on a magnetic storage tape, the recording head including a write element and a read element in a known spatial relationship, wherein the read element is configured to access at least a portion of a reference track when the write element is accessing the active track. A controller determines a relative position of the transducer element to the reference track and repositions the recording head to write data to the active track. The read element may be a backward channel reader or dedicated read element of the recording head for reading reference tracks during read and/or write operations.

    Abstract: A dual actuator arm assembly system that uses two pairs of actuator-carriage arms that linearly move over a stationary micro-rail independently. The geometric shape of the two pairs of actuator carriage arms conform to the arcs of the data tracks at an acute angle. System enables micro-actuation that is integrated to actuator arm and is a function of its geometry. Uninterrupted data stream and sector coverage and thus parallel data transfer scheme is made possible. Each actuator move only within a limited range of disk area, thus precision is increased, vibration is minimized and external transfer rate is speeded up and overall access time is shortened. Instant access to two quarters of the disk with two pairs of actuators and to park these without landing the heads—by positioning and constant fly height during idle mode, or when system is turned off, are introduced as what are new in the art.

    Abstract: A disk storage device has a simultaneous data transfer head means (2284) having a plurality of data transducer means (2570) for the simultaneous storage and/or retrieval of a plurality of data on a disk means. The device makes it feasible for the simultaneous transfer of data to and from a disk storage device with a storage area formed thereon (2272), thereby increasing the I/O between the processing unit and the storage device. The magnetic data transfer transducer is fabricated on a substrate by thin film techniques with each element, including the head gap, being successively formed on more elements previously formed.

    Abstract: Techniques for ultrahigh density writing on an erasable magnetic medium include using a micromachined mechanism having two probes for writing to the medium. Use of the two probe embodiment eliminates the need to change the magnetic orientation of the probe. In another embodiment, a single probe is provided which is heated to the vicinity of its Curie temperature to enable the magnetic orientation of the probe to be switched. The probe may be heated to its Curie temperature through the use of a heating element or a focused laser. In another embodiment of the present invention, either the magnetic orientation of the probe or the magnetic orientation of the medium may be switched through the combination of a static magnetic field, a radio frequency magnetic field and, under certain circumstances, the magnetic field of the probe. In all cases, the writing techniques enable information to be written to a magnetic medium in a manner which enables the information to be erased and the medium rewritten.
