Magnetic Recording Physics Leaves patterns
of remanent magnetization on a track within the surface of magnetic media that sits on top of a physical substrate.

Magnetic Recording Physics
Track formed by head passing over it.
We say that the head flies over the track, i.e. we assume the view point of the head.
![Page 4: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Magnetic Recording Physics Three principal orientations of
magnetization with respect to a track: Longitudinal, Perpendicular, Lateral.
![Page 5: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Magnetic Recording Physics Longitudinal recording:
Transducer is ring-shaped electromagnet with a gap at the surface facing the media.
If head is fed with current, the fringing field from the gap magnetizes the magnetic media.
Media moves at constant velocity under the head.
Temporal changes in the current leave spatial variations in the remanent magnetization along the length of the track.

Magnetic Recording Physics
Read head used to be the same as write head.
Passing the gap head over the track would let the magnetization pattern cause an induced read current.
![Page 9: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Magnetic Recording Physics
The read current is a (deformed) derivative of the write current. The deformation results from the length of the gap.

Hard drives currently use exclusively longitudinal magnetization.
Switch to perpendicular is expected in the near future. Better retention Higher Areal

![Page 17: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Magnetic Recording Physics
MR head directly reads the magnetic flux.
Gap head reads the changes in magnetic flux.
MR head can adjust the sense current. Better sensitivity.

Data Storage on Rigid Disks
![Page 19: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Single platter or stack of platters
Thin magnetic coating Rotate at high speeds.
Magnetic recording heads mounted on arms record data on all surfaces.
Heads moved across the disk surface by a high speed actuator.
Circular tracks. Cylinder
Formed by the tracks on all surfaces by same actuator position.
The tracks are broken up into sectors (or disk blocks).
The old format of 512B per block still remains in effect.
![Page 20: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks
![Page 21: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks
![Page 22: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Hard drives rotate at constant
angular speed. Constant linear velocity impractical. Heads see more track in the outer
layers. Nr. of sectors per track varies. Remains constant in a “band”. Data density increases in a band as we
move to the inside.
![Page 23: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks The platter consists of a rigid
aluminium or glass platter, coated with various coats. Rigid platter Magnetizable thin film that actually
stores the data. Overcoat Lubricant
Protects (somewhat) against head crashes
![Page 24: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Use surrounding air pressure to maintain
the proper distance between head and the surface
The spacing controls the focus of the head; if the head is further away from the surface, then it will read from and write to a wider area.
To increase data densities, the head - surface spacing has decreased dramatically.
The head can no longer be parked on the surface during power down (when the rotation ceases, the head will actually land).
Special landing area. Surface is treated to allow air to get between the
head and the surface. When head flies again, move over the data tracks.
![Page 25: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Data Storage on Rigid Disks Data Access:
Seek Place head over right track. Servo: Find the right track.
Used to be done with a special servo-surface on one of the platters.
No servo data is embedded in the sector gaps. Rotational Delay
On average half the time of a disk revolution. AKA latency.

Data Storage on Rigid Disks Performance Parameters:
Capacity / Data Density Disks with smaller form factors have become
popular in niche applications. Trend towards smaller disk, that can rotate
faster. Data density is a two-dimensional value:
tpi: Tracks per inch: How far do tracks have to be separated.
bpi: bits per inch: How many sectors on a single track.
![Page 28: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks
Operations on adjacent tracks can interfere with each other: Track misregistration. During read
Too much noise. During write
Data written can be unreadable.
Data on next track can become unreadable.
![Page 29: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Data Density:
Limited by the ability to distinguish distinct magnetization patterns.
Pulse superimposition theory: Flux from nearby magnetization patterns
influences reads.
![Page 30: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks
Read current picked up by a magnetic gap head.
Red line: Read current in absence of the other change.
Green line: Resulting read current.
Top: No interference.
Middle: Peak shifts to the outside.
Bottom: Peak shift much more pronounced.
![Page 31: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Seek time:
Determined by the speed of the actuator.
Determined by the capacity of the servo mechanism.
If the actuator moves very fast, then there is more of a settling time.
![Page 32: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Latency:
Solely determined by rotational speed. Rotational speed limited by the
aerodynamics of the platter. Larger platters cannot be rotated as
fast as smaller ones.
![Page 33: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Access Time:
Random Access Seek Latency Transfer
Stream (block after block) Only first seek, only first latency. Zero Latency Disk
Starts reading whenever data needed appears under the head.
Others wait for the first block of the stream. Occasional track to neighboring track seeks.
![Page 34: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Errors
Disks are not intended for error-free operations.
Soft error Error cannot be repeated.
Hard error Cannot do the operation.
![Page 35: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Interference
Cross-talk between different channels or through feedthrough.
Track Misregistration. Imperfect Overwrites / Incomplete
Erasures. Side fringing
when the head picks up flux changes from an adjacent track.
Bit loss due to Intersymbol Interference.
![Page 36: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Noise
Media noise Defects or random media properties
Spot on the surface does not retain magnetization because of a manufacturing problem or because of a previous head crash.
A modern disk drive has spare sectors on each track and complete spare tracks to substitute for sectors that have these defects.
Even without an outright defect, the magnetic properties of the medium vary.
Electronic Noise caused by random fluctuations typically in the first
stage amplifier in the reproducing circuit. Head Noise:
The magnetic flux in both write and read heads is subject to thermally induced fluctuations in time.
![Page 37: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Error rate is controlled through the
use of Error Control Codes. In addition, each sector has a
checksum to prevent false data from being read.
![Page 38: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Data Storage on Rigid Disks Reliability
Device failure SMART (UCSD MRC) can predict 50%
failures based on higher rate of soft errors. Block failure: bit rot Data corruption: bit rot that is
undetected.

Data Storage on Rigid Disks Power Use
Major problems for laptops. Major problems for very large disk-
based storage centers. Various proposals of spinning up / down
strategies: MAID: Massive Arrays of Idle Disks.
System Interface: SCSI vs. IDE.

Magnetic Codes
Magnetic codes bind the bit stream to magnetization patterns.
Direction of write current determines the direction of magnetization Easiest: NRZ code
No Return to Zero Code. Needs clocking.
![Page 41: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Magnetic Codes
NRZ Code: Vertical lines are clock ticks. They define a window. Write current in one direction is a zero, in
other is a one bit. We detect magnetization changes (Peak
detection). We miss one, we reverse the rest of the string.
![Page 42: Magnetic recording By Diks](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062514/5583be1cd8b42a784f8b46c9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Magnetic Codes
NRZI No Return on Zero Inverted Switch magnetization pattern = 1 No switch during window = 0. Has difficulties of counting with long
strings of zeroes.

Magnetic Codes
Problem with PM: Up to twice as many flux changes
than transitions. Limits bit density because flux
changes too close together leads to noisy signal.

Magnetic Codes Modulation Codes
Transform data bit string into a magnetic code. Written on magnetic medium as an NRZI waveform. 3 Parameters:
d = minimum of zeroes between consecutive ones. k = maximum of zeroes between consecutive ones. Data density: ratio of x data bits over y magnetic code
bits. Important for capacity:
Large values of d are important for data density: Flux transitions are spaced out.
Lower values of k indicate ease of synchronizing clocks.

Hard Drive Reliability
Disk Infant Mortality becomes noticeable for management when setting up redundancy strategies for very large arrays of drives.
Either: Increase redundancy of data stored
partially on young drives. Use additional burn-in times

Hard Drive Reliability Stated Service Life
Expected service time of drive, usually rather short. (~ 3 years)
Design life Time span that a disk drive should be
functioning reliably. Because of technical obsolescence
(performance, capacity) < 7 years. Warranty Length

Bad Batch Problem Anecdotes of “bad batches” Tend to show up in the first year But not fast enough to be caught by
quality. Usually dealt with silently through the
warranty process

Hard Drive Reliability SMART
SMART spec (SFF-8035i) 1996 Lists of 30 attributes
read error rates seek error rates
Attribute exceeding a threshold: Disk is expected to die within 24 hours Disk is beyond design / usage lifetime
ATA-4 Internal attribute table is dropped Disk return OK or Not-OK
ATA-5 Adds ATA error logs and commands to run self-
tests
