Abstract
A system is capable of detecting a 'large' shock. In contrast to just any shock, a large shock exceeds some threshold of magnitude or duration and may generate particles and/or the deposit of particles on a recording head, which can result in write errors. Responsive to detection of a large shock, the system can take corrective action, such as executing one or more corrective action seeks after detection of the large shock or executing a series of corrective actions seeks during a certain number of load operations after detection of the large shock. RAW verifications may be performed to confirm correct write operation of the recording head after such corrective action.
