ABSTRACT:
Detecting flaws in a disk drive includes sampling a read signal provided by reading a data pattern from a disk to obtain samples, obtaining significant samples from the samples, deriving a value from the significant samples, and reporting a flaw if a comparison between the derived value and a threshold value is unacceptable.
