Method for recording data with protection against adjacent track erasure and storage medium therewith

Abstract

A method of recording data capable of preventing an adjacent track erase is provided. The method includes accumulating and computing the number of times the data is recorded in sectors of at least one track, determining whether the accumulated number of times exceeds a predetermined number of times, and rewriting the data, which is recorded in adjacent tracks to the at least one track, in the adjacent tracks, if the accumulated number of times exceeds the predetermined number of times. If the number of times exceeds a predetermined number, the data is rewritten in regions adjacent to the specific region, thereby minimizing the influence of the ATE.
