<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a disc drive that suppresses effect due to an adjacent track erasure to a minimum by using an adaptive counting of writing on a data track. <P>SOLUTION: A hard disc drive (HDD) suppresses effect due to an adjacent track erasure (ATE) to a minimum by using an adaptive counting of writing on a data track. The track is segmented and grouped, and a counter is associated with each of the segments. The number of the tracks in the segment varies according to the number of writing operations on the segment and is adapted to the number of writing on the segment. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
