Abstract
According to one embodiment, there is provided a disk apparatus including a disk medium and a controller. The disk medium is able to store a signal with three levels in a track. The track includes a first subtrack and a second subtract. The second subtrack is adjacent to the first subtract. The controller performs a first operation based on a selected level among the three levels, a first bit written in the first subtract corresponding to the selected level, and a second bit written in the second subtrack corresponding to the selected level. The first operation is an operation to correct displacement between a write position of a third bit in the first subtrack and a write position of a fourth bit in the second subtrack in a circumferential direction of the disk medium.
