Abstract
A method, medium, and apparatus controlling a hard disk drive, and particularly, embodiments include methods, media, and apparatuses compensating for torque variations with respect to temperature variations in a seek servo operation, compensating for differences between modeling torque constants, used for servo designing, and actual torque constants. The method includes controlling gain of a seek control loop to vary depending on a torque constant temperature compensation value corresponding to a measured temperature of the hard disk drive, the seek control loop generating a seek driving current to be applied to a voice coil in the seek mode.
