ABSTRACT:
A disk drive is disclosed which has a read/write channel utilizing a turbo coding/decoding method. In decimating a parity sequence of an RSC code sequence, a puncture unit included in a turbo codec executes a decimation process based on a coding rate (puncture rate) determined in view of a dominant error event.
