Abstract
A data storage device is disclosed comprising an actuator configured to actuate a head over a disk surface, and a vibration sensor configured to generate a vibration signal (VS). Control circuitry comprising a servo control system having a torque rejection curve (TRC) configured to control the actuator is configured to measure a position error signal (PES) of the head, and measure the VS output by the vibration sensor. A feed-forward compensator is configured based on PES/VS/TRC. While seeking the head across the disk surface, the VS is processed using the feed-forward compensator to generate a feed-forward compensation during a settle interval of the seek, and the actuator is controlled using the feed-forward compensation during the settle interval.
