Abstract
A storage device includes a multi-reader transducer head with a first reader and a second reader having an effective cross-track separation equal to a multiple of a defined track-pitch of a storage medium of the storage device. The effective cross-track separation may permit for a simultaneous data read of two non-adjacent data tracks.
