ABSTRACT:
A rotatable storage media includes a first data segment stored in first tracks and a second data segment stored in second tracks. The first tracks include a first start track and a first end track, and the second tracks include a second start track and a second end track. The first data segment starts in the first start track at a start rotational phase, ends in the first end track at an end rotational phase, starts in adjacent first tracks at start rotational phases offset by an intra-segment rotational skew angle and ends in adjacent first tracks at end rotational phases offset by the intra-segment rotational skew angles. The second data segment starts in the second start track at the start rotational phase, ends in the second end track at the end rotational phase, starts in adjacent second tracks at start rotational phases offset by the intra-segment rotational skew angle and ends in adjacent second tracks at end rotational phases offset by the intra-segment rotational skew angle. Furthermore, the first and second data segments are radially coherent, and the start and end rotational phases are offset by an inter-segment rotational skew angle that is greater than the intra-segment rotational skew angle.
