Abstract

A storage device controller addresses consecutively-addressed portions of incoming data to consecutive data tracks on a storage medium and writes the consecutively-addressed portions to the consecutive data tracks in a non-consecutive track order. In one implementation, the storage device controller reads the data back from the consecutive data tracks in a consecutive address order in a single sequential read operation.
