Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Systems and methods are provided for throughput optimization of a hard disk drive (HDD) using position error signaling (PES) that includes determining a PES for a HDD mounted in a chassis based on a dynamic disturbance. The method also includes calculating a critical parameter of the PES. The method further includes indicating a mechanical design modification of the HDD or the chassis if the critical parameter of the PES exceeds a pre-defined threshold.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method for throughput optimization of a hard disk drive (HDD) comprising: determining a position error signaling (PES) for a HDD mounted in a chassis based on a dynamic disturbance; calculating a critical parameter of the PES; determining a performance parameter for the HDD; and indicating a first mechanical design modification of the HDD or the chassis if the critical parameter of the PES exceeds a pre-defined threshold or if the performance paramet…
