The commercialization of heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) presents some significant technical challenges that need to be resolved before the widespread adoption of the technology can begin. In this paper, we present some HAMR data from prototype drives and discuss some of the challenges related to protrusion management, recording performance optimization, and drive power requirements within the drive.
