A magnetic disk device includes a disk, first and second heads, a motor, and a controller. The disk includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The first head is configured to perform reading and writing with respect to the first surface. The second head is configured to perform reading and writing with respect to the second surface. The motor is configured to move the first and second heads with respect to the first and second surfaces, respectively, along a radial direction of the disk. The controller is configured to alternately activate the first and second heads to perform writing of a plurality of spiral patterns on the first and second surfaces of the disk, respectively, while controlling the motor to move the first and second heads at a predetermined constant speed with respect to the first and second surfaces in the radial direction.
