A servo writer system for a disk drive uses the reader element of a magnetic transducer head in the disk drive to read head position information during servo writing of the disk drive. A positioning system in the servo writer uses both the head position information and actuator position information, as feedback signals to accurately position the transducer during servo writing, resulting in high quality servo tracks.
