Question: Why not add more heads to the typical PC hard drive? Not top and bottom or multi-platter, but additional servos with heads. Set the heads 180 degrees apart for 2, or 120 degrees for 3. Wouldn't this allow faster seek and access times, and faster transfer rates?
Yes, I know it would cost more.
Yes, I know it would consume more power.
Yes, I know it would complicate the drive's operation.
Yes, I know it would make the package larger, although maybe a three head/servo with 3.5" format platter could fit in a 5" package.
Is my logic faulty?
