Abstract
Systems and methods are included for determining a presence of an upcoming reading field during a write mode of a storage device, and initiating a read-while write (RWW) mode of the storage device in response to the sensed reading field. Initiating the RWW mode comprises warming up the reader circuitry, generating a signal in response to an end to the write operation, and activating reader bias current in response to the generated signal.
