Abstract
A data storage disk drive system uses a no-ID disk architecture. The disk is formatted by mapping the disk in the desired format and allocating the defective regions to defective sectors. The list of defective sectors is then stored in a table. The user may selectively perform this format operation without the need to perform an AC erase of the entire disk and/or a write of all data sectors on the disk.
