Abstract:
A disk drive according to an embodiment includes a disk, a first actuator having a first arm, a second actuator having a second arm, and a head. The head includes a write head and a read head. In addition, the disk drive includes a control unit calculating an amount of shift from an initial value of offset in a radial direction of the disk between the read head and the write head. The control unit controls the second actuator and corrects a position of the head to a position where the shift amount is reduced.
