A method of determining errors in a data storage device is disclosed. The disclosed method includes receiving a first code word from the data storage device. The method further includes determining whether a data error exists in the code word by analyzing a plurality of subsequent code words. Detecting a data error includes calculating first, second, and third checksums for each of a plurality of subsequent code words and determining whether there is an insertion or deletion error based on the calculated checksums. A further method includes receiving location information of errors on a data medium and adjusting a write clock frequency to reduce the probability of creating errors on the data medium during a write process.
