Abstract
According to an embodiment, on a first track of a magnetic disk, a plurality of first sectors in each of which a data segment is stored, and a second sector in which a parity for first error correction is stored are arranged in this order from a first position. A controller executes a first operation of sequentially reading a first data segment from each of the plurality of first sectors, and storing a group of the read first data segments in a buffer memory. The controller obtains a first parity from the group of the read first data segments. The controller starts a second operation of writing each first data segment stored in the buffer memory, to a first sector that is a read source among the plurality of first sectors, and writing the first parity to the second sector, before the magnetic head reaches the first position.
