Abstract
An embodiment of a data write path includes encoder and write circuits. The encoder circuit is configured to code data so as to render detectable a write error that occurs during a writing of the coded data to a storage medium, and the write circuit is configured to write the coded data to the storage medium. For example, such an embodiment may allow rendering detectable a write error that occurs while writing data to a bit-patterned storage medium.
