Systems and methods in accordance with embodiments of the present
invention can be applied to determine the position of a ramp relative to
an actuator. In one embodiment, a system in accordance with the present
invention includes a rotatable medium having a first track assigned to a
track located a distance from the ramp, rather than a distance from an
average acquire track, thereby maximizing the size of a data region. A
track density can be reduced for a given hard disk drive capacity, or
alternatively the hard disk drive capacity can be maximized for a given
track density.
