Abstract
A system and method for verifying a servo pattern in tape media include a tape drive unit which moves the tape media lengthwise across a read head. The tape drive unit is adapted to use a tape comprising at least one servo band, each servo band including at least one servo pattern. The tape drive unit scans the read head across the servo band in a widthwise direction relative to the tape media. The system and method also include an electronic control unit that is adapted to verify the servo pattern.
