PATTERNED MEDIA WITH SPACINGS ADJUSTED BY A SKEW FUNCTION

摘要

A recording media comprising multiple first and second patterned media islands sequentially placed at different first and second radii along a length of a recording track. A recording head sequentially accesses the first and second islands as the head moves along a length of the recording track. Circumferential spacings between sequential first and second islands along the length of the track vary as a skew function of a track radius.
