Abstract
Systems and methods in accordance with embodiments of the present invention can be applied to determine the position of a ramp relative to an actuator. In one embodiment, a system in accordance with the present invention includes a rotatable medium having a first track assigned to a track located a distance from the ramp, rather than a distance from an average acquire track, thereby maximizing the size of a data region. A track density can be reduced for a given hard disk drive capacity, or alternatively the hard disk drive capacity can be maximized for a given track density.
