Figure 3.5 Track skew/cylinder skew
The number of physical sectors (track skew factor and cylinder skew factor) corresponding to
the skew time varies depending on the logical data block length because the track skew and
the cylinder skew are managed for individual sectors. The IDD automatically determines
appropriate values for the track skew factor and the cylinder skew factor according to the
specified logical data block length. The value can be read out by the MODE SENSE or
MODE SENSE EXTENDED command after the track has been formatted.
