Abstract

A data storage device is disclosed comprising a head actuated over a disk comprising servo data for defining a plurality of data tracks. A plurality of zones are defined for the disk, wherein each zone comprises a plurality of the data tracks. Position error signal (PES) repeatable runout (RRO) values are generated based on the servo data in a first zone, and data sector squeeze RRO values are generated based on data segments in the first zone. A first data track format for the first zone is generated based on the PES RRO values, and a second data track format is generated for the first zone based on the data sector squeeze RRO values.
