Abstract:
A disk drive to reduce head instability during disk drive manufacturing is disclosed. The disk drive comprises: a disk; a dynamic flying height (DFH) read/write head; a flying height actuator to control the spacing between the DFH read/write head and the disk; and a controller. The controller controls operations in the disk drive including applying a sloped increasing power between a first voltage and a second voltage to move the DFH read/write head towards the disk.
