Abstract
According to an embodiment, a manufacturing method includes: estimating a distribution of an initial value of a clearance of a magnetic head on a first recording surface; and recording first spiral signals on the first recording surface while controlling a clearance using the distribution of the initial value of the estimated clearance. The manufacturing method includes measuring a distribution of an initial value of a clearance of a magnetic head on a second recording surface under positioning control using the first spiral signals recorded on the first recording surface. The manufacturing method includes recording the first spiral signals on the second recording surface while controlling a clearance using the distribution of the initial value of the measured clearance of the magnetic head on the second recording surface. The manufacturing method includes recording the second spiral signals on a third recording surface under positioning control using the first spiral signals recorded on the second recording surface.
