A task assigning system within a dual actuator disk drive system wherein each task has a cylinder address comprising a plurality of registers, each register having a unique address and a plurality of fields for storing a task including the cylinder address associated with the tasks, a queue RAM (14) comprising a header register, the header register having a plurality of fields, an insertion means for inserting and ordering the registers into the queue RAM (14) when a task is first stored into the register, a first means (28) for assigning tasks stored in the queue RAM (14) to a first actuator (63) of the dual actuators in the sequence of increasing value of the cylinder addresses of tasks stored in the registers in the queue RAM (14) and a second means (30) for assigning tasks stored in the queue RAM (14) to a second actuator (61) of the dual actuators (63, 61) in the sequence of decreasing values of the cylinder addresses of the tasks stored in the registers in the queue RAM (14). |
