Abstract

In a magnetic storage system, an error recovery is performed by reading the magnetic medium again with the filter programmed to a higher boost. If the retry still fails, the magnetic medium is read again with the filter programmed to a lower boost. The filter adjustment can be performed in combination with position adjustment of the read head, i.e. displacing the read/write head from the centerline of the track during error recovery to reduce read errors.
