Abstract
In order to implement efficient read/write testing by firstly determining read/write test area-sampling positions based on position information relating to any defects detected during optical inspection, and then conducting read/write tests only upon areas neighboring the defects detected during the optical inspection, a magnetic disk to be inspected is retained on a spindle and moved under this state between an optical type of inspection apparatus and a read/write test apparatus, in which apparatus configuration the read/write test apparatus uses position information on any defects detected by the optical type of inspection apparatus and conducts read/write tests only upon neighboring areas of the defects detected by the optical type of inspection apparatus.
