Abstract

A data storage device can have one or more data bits that are stored on a data storage medium and accessed with a transducing head. The data bits may be organized on the data storage medium to provide a surface data capacity. A performance degradation can be predicted for the transducing head by a controller connected to the transducing head. In response to the predicted performance degradation, the surface data capacity of the data storage medium is decreased.
