Abstract
A recording system records sector information on a recording medium, such as a hard disc drive, using a write gate signal. Timing of the write gate signal enables writing a servo data patterns over the servo wedge fields of the disc and, if the hard disc drive contains prior recorded data, writing null data over selected sector segments of the hard disc.
