Abstract

According to an embodiment, a magnetic disk is provided with a servo sector in which a preamble and a burst pattern are recorded. A recording frequency of the preamble is different from an even multiple of a recording frequency of the burst pattern. A controller determines a demodulation period of the burst pattern while a magnetic head passes through the servo sector. The controller acquires a first phase of a demodulation signal of the burst pattern and acquires first position information of the magnetic head, by demodulating the burst pattern in the demodulation period. The controller corrects the first position information on the basis of the first phase. The controller executes positioning control of the magnetic head on the basis of second position information that is post-correction first position information.
