Methods for testing for defects on magnetic media storage disks are provided. One such method includes dividing a surface of a magnetic media disk into a plurality of radial zones, dividing the disk surface into a plurality of concentric zones, thereby forming a preselected number (N) of wedge subsections for each of the concentric zones, scanning the disk surface for defects, counting the defects contained within each of the wedge subsections, summing the defects contained within two or more of the wedge subsections, comparing the summed defects with a preselected threshold, and determining, based on the comparison, a defect type of the disk. |
