ABSTRACT:
A position detection system of a data storage apparatus and a position detection method. The position detection system includes a recording medium including a plurality of servo fields and data fields, in a case where n×m data bits are formed on each of the data fields, and a probe array including H servo probes that scan the servo fields. An absolute position of a data bit can be detected by one-to-one correspondence. In addition, the servo regions can be disposed among the data regions, and the data probes can be used as the servo probes.
