Abstract

A data storage device is disclosed comprising a head actuated over a disk comprising a plurality of servo tracks defined by servo bursts. The head is positioned at a first radial location over the disk and a first burst correction value is generated by reading at least one of the servo bursts. The head is positioned at a second radial location over the disk and a second burst correction value is generated by reading at least one of the servo bursts. The head is positioned at a third radial location over the disk and the first burst correction value and the second burst correction value are written at the third radial location. The head is servoed over the disk by reading the first and second burst correction values.
