ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are disclosed for optimizing operational performance of a disc drive through temperature dependent parametric configuration. A plurality of parameter sets corresponding to a plurality of predefined contiguous operational temperature ranges of the disc drive are initially established. During operation of the disc drive, a temperature sensor is used to periodically measure the temperature of the drive. The operational temperature range in which the measured temperature falls is identified, and the disc drive utilizes the parameter set corresponding to the identified operational temperature range.
