Abstract
Various illustrative aspects are directed to a data storage device, comprising one or more disks; an actuator mechanism configured to position heads proximate to a recording medium of the disks; a spindle motor configured for rotating the one or more disks; and one or more processing devices comprising a servo control processor. The servo control processor is configured to receive a spindle speed error signal indicative of an error in a rotational speed of the spindle motor. The servo control processor is further configured to output an initial frequency offset signal, wherein the initial frequency offset signal is proportional to the spindle speed error signal.
