Methods and apparatus are provided for validating a detection of RRO address marks. After a potential RRO address mark is detected, a disclosed RROAM validation metric evaluates the energy of the remaining RRO data bits in the servo sector, relative to a predefined energy threshold. In addition, the number of remaining RRO data bits in the servo sector is compared to an expected value. The detected RRO address mark is validated in an exemplary embodiment if the RROAM validation metric satisfies the predefined energy threshold and the proper number of remaining RRO data bits is detected in the servo sector. The potential RRO address mark can optionally be discarded if the potential RRO address mark is not validated. |
