Disk drives are packed at ever dense arrangement in a modern data storage system, internal and external mechanical disturbances can have a great effect to disk drive’s read and write performances. The VCM torque generated during seeking affects its own as well as neighboring drives head position. In this study, we modeled a storage box with multiple HDDs installed to obtain mechanical system transfer function. The mechanical excitation is characterized by VCM torque, and HDD operational vibration behaviors on linear and rotational shakers are measured. A system level hybrid method predicting HDD head position error in a data storage box is described, and both analytical and measured results will be presented.

Abstract The data read and write operation in a hard disk drive (HDD) relies on precision mechanical components, such as air bearing sliders, suspension, and piezo actuators. Many of those mechanical components are sensitive to mechanical disturbances. It is found that sound a disturbance (or airborne disturbance) increases the position error signal (PES), such that the tracking, following and seeking performance is compromised. For a data storage enclosure and server in a data center, cooling fans generate strong sound noise, resulting in degradation of the performance of HDDs. In this study, we showed that the PES degrades when placing a sound source next to the HDD, indicating that the sound-induced vibration links to the mechanical components inside the HDD. It is also found that the PES is very sensitive to the location of the sound source. A vibration model was built by finite element method (FEM). The simulation results were compared to experiments on a thin plate structure to explain this dependency on the location of sound source.

ABSTRACTThe first prototype of high-density ferroelectric data storage system based on scanning nonlinear dielectric microscopy was developed in order to establish basic elemental technologies for actual read/write functions aiming for practical application. Using this system, a data transfer rate was evaluated. 9 kbps reading and 50 kbps writing were demonstrated with respect to 440 kbit/inch bit data array written on a lithium tantalate single crystal thin plate. Additionally, we considered future prospects for developing the data storage system with further fast data transfer rate.
