Abstract
According to one embodiment, a magnetic disk device includes a magnetic disk including at least one servo zone that includes a first data storage track with a first servo pattern having a first frequency and a second data storage track with a second servo pattern having a second frequency, wherein the first data storage track is located closer to an outer diameter of the magnetic disk than the first data storage track and the first frequency is greater than the second frequency; a magnetic head that faces the magnetic disk; and a zone servo switching unit that switches a servo pattern frequency employed to position the magnetic head in a radial direction based on a radial position of the magnetic head.
