Abstract
The present disclosure includes systems and techniques relating to control of recording devices, such as disk drives. Systems and techniques can include controlling a motor to actuate a head about a surface of a rotating recording medium, switching from a first mode to a second mode to control the motor based on a condition of operation with respect to the rotating recording medium, and synchronizing the switch from the first mode to the second mode based on a state of electric current associated with the motor.
