Abstract
A magnetic disk drive includes first and second disks having respective first and second surfaces, a first head including a first write head that writes data on the first surface at a first recording density, and a first assist element that generates a first energy for increasing a write performance by the first write head, a second head including a second write head that writes data on the second surface at a second recording density, and a second assist element that generates a second energy for increasing a write performance by the second write head, and a controller that changes one of the first and second recording densities based on a first recording capacity up to which the first head is capable of writing on the first disk, a second recording capacity up to which the second head is capable of writing on the second disk, and a target capacity.
