Adjusting track spacing for heat assisted recording medium according to reader to-reader separation
Two or more reader sensors are commonly mounted on a read/write head that is configured to read data from a heat-assisted recording medium. For a region of the recording medium, a separation is determined for the reader sensors. A track spacing that provides a target areal density for the region is determined. The track spacing for the region is adjusted to approach a predetermined ratio of the separation.
