Abstract
A magnetic disk device includes a magnetic disk including a track having a plurality of sectors, a motor configured to rotate the magnetic disk, a magnetic head, and a controller. The controller is configured to perform a first read operation of reading target sectors among the sectors of the track, with the magnetic head during a first revolution of the magnetic disk, detect an off-track state of the magnetic head during the first revolution of the magnetic disk, perform a first error correction with respect to data read from the target sectors during the first read operation, and perform a second read operation of selectively reading a part of the target sectors for which the off-track state has been detected or the first error correction is unsuccessful, with the magnetic head during a second revolution of the magnetic disk.
