摘要:
According to an embodiment, in a disk device, a first actuator moves a first head with respect to a first surface of a first disk. A controller controls positioning of the first head via the first actuator and controls a write operation to the first disk by the first head. The controller acquires information regarding a state of a vibration source, changes a value of a coefficient for estimating a predicted position of the first head according to the information regarding the state of the vibration source, estimates a predicted position of the first head with the value of the coefficient changed, performs a write operation by the first head in a case where the predicted position estimated is equal to or less than a threshold, and prohibits the write operation by the first head in a case where the predicted position estimated exceeds the threshold.

A data storage device is disclosed wherein multiple voice coil motors (VCMs) are unloaded using a back electromotive force (BEMF) voltage generated by a spindle motor. A velocity and position of each VCM is measured, and a priority assigned to each VCM based on the measured velocity and position. During a delay interval, the BEMF voltage is used to apply a first brake voltage to a high priority VCM and to apply a second brake voltage to a low priority VCM, wherein the second brake voltage is lower than the first brake voltage. After the delay interval, the BEMF voltage is used to apply the first brake voltage to the high priority VCM and to apply a third brake voltage to the low priority VCM, wherein the third brake voltage is higher than the second brake voltage.

Certain exemplary aspects of the present disclosure are directed towards apparatuses and methods which mitigate the effect of speaker vibration on a disc drive. Audio associated with a speaker output is detected and triggers the generation of an output signal indicative of speaker vibration associated with such an audio output of a speaker. A magnetoresistive transducer of the disc drive is positioned relative to a storage medium based on the output signal, a target data storage location in the storage medium from which data is to be accessed via the positioning, and the position of the transducer. The output signal mitigates the effect of the speaker vibration on the transducer.

A discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of a position error signal (PES) of a read/write head controlled by a currently-used controller is determined. A plurality of predicted PES spectra are determined based on the DFT of the PES and a plurality of sensitivity functions associated with a plurality of controllers. One of the plurality of controllers is selected based on respective deviation metrics of the plurality of PES spectra. Servo control of the read/write head changes to use the selected controller.
