Abstract

A method for writing servo information in a disk drive that includes a write head and one or more recording surfaces includes: writing a first portion of a first spiral with the write head on a first recording surface of the one or more recording surfaces while controlling a radial position of the write head with a controller that is configured with a first set of controller parameter values; after the read head crosses a second spiral formed on a second recording surface of the one or more recording surfaces, determining a radial position error for the write head based on information associated with the second spiral; and in response to the radial position error exceeding a disturbance threshold value, writing a second portion of the first spiral with the write head while controlling the radial position of the write head with the controller while the controller is configured with a second set of controller parameter values.
