A method and system for performing a shortened acquire cycle for at least one fragment of at least one data sector having coherently written fragments, the coherently written fragments being written during a single rotation of a storage medium. The method includes performing a full acquire cycle for a first fragment of a particular data sector of the at least one data sector. The method further includes reusing at least a portion of the acquisition information of the first fragment to perform a shortened acquire cycle for at least one subsequent coherently written fragment. The method also includes reusing at least a portion of the acquisition information of the first fragment to perform a shortened acquire cycle for at least one subsequent coherently written fragment. Additionally, the method includes performing the shortened acquire cycle for the at least one subsequent coherently written fragment.
