Abstract

An indicator indicating a non-linearity of a servo pattern is within 15% or less of a track pitch. The track pitch is a pitch between tracks. The indicator indicates a degree of variation in the plurality of distance differences from an average value of the plurality of distance differences. The distance difference is a difference between a distance between a pair of first positions corresponding to each other in the width direction in the pair of servo patterns and a distance between a pair of second positions deviated from the pair of first positions in the width direction by a first predetermined interval in the pair of servo patterns. The plurality of distance differences are obtained by measuring the distance difference for each second predetermined interval along the width direction in the pair of servo patterns. The first predetermined interval is larger than the second predetermined interval.
