Abstract
A magnetic disk apparatus according to an embodiment includes a magnetic disk, a magnetic head, a second memory, and a controller. On the magnetic disk, a servo sector where first servo data is recorded is provided. The magnetic head writes data and reads data to and from the magnetic disk. The first memory stores data to be written and stores data read from the magnetic disk. The second memory stores second servo data. The controller acquires the second servo data corresponding to the first servo data from the second memory based on the first servo data read by the magnetic head when passing over the servo sector. The controller executes positioning control of the magnetic head by using the first servo data and the second servo data.
