Abstract
An external servo writer configured to write a plurality of embedded servo sectors on a magnetic tape to define a plurality of data tracks is disclosed. A first part of the plurality of embedded servo sectors is written while controlling an actuator to first move a head vertically along a width of the magnetic tape. A second part of the plurality of embedded servo sectors is written while controlling the actuator to second move the head vertically along the width of the magnetic tape.
