ABSTRACT:
A hard disk drive that contains a detection circuit which senses the back emf of a voice coil. The detection circuit generates a shock detection signal when the back emf of the voice coil exceeds a pre-determined value. The write disable gate of the disk drive is disabled when the voltage detection circuit generates the shock detection signal.
