ABSTRACT:
A flexible recording medium, which has a track width in the range of approximately 1-3 μm, capable of facilitating good tracking control. A magnetic pattern bearing servo signals is provided on the guard bands formed on both sides of a data track of a magnetic recording medium. An improvement in tracking control is achieved by performing the servo tracking in a continuous manner.
