Abstract
According to one embodiment, a magnetic disk apparatus includes a magnetic disk, a magnetic head, and a controller. The magnetic disk includes a plurality of tracks. The magnetic head performs read/write from/to the plurality of tracks. The controller controls, in a first case in which, during execution of write to a first track among the plurality of tracks, a position of the magnetic head is displaced from a target position corresponding to the first track toward a second track, and a first distance exceeds a first threshold, write to the second track under a condition different from a condition in a second case in which the first distance is less than the first threshold. The second track is a track different from the first track among the plurality of tracks. The first distance is the distance between the target position and the position of the magnetic head.
