ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided for writing servo bursts with compensation for erase bands in a direct access storage device (DASD). A first servo burst is written on the magnetic disk media using a transducer head in the DASD. The transducer head is moved in a first direction and the first written servo burst is trimmed. The transducer head is moved in a second direction opposite the first direction corresponding to the width of an erase band and then a next servo burst is written.
