ABSTRACT:
Methods and devices are shown that identify suitable second data operations after experiencing an off track event in a first data operation and perform the second data operations before correcting an off track event. Methods and device as shown provide increased efficiency in a hard disk drive. Time that normally would be wasted waiting for the read/write head to spin around for another try to correct an off track error is used to complete other nearby operations.
