According to one embodiment, a disk drive has a magnetic disk and a magnetic head having a spin-torque oscillator. The disk drive further has a head amplifier IC configured to supply a write signal and a drive signal to the magnetic head. The write signal corresponds to write data. The drive signal is supplied to generate a high-frequency magnetic field. The head amplifier IC continuously supplies a drive signal of normal level to the spin-torque oscillator, and supplies a drive signal of high level higher than the normal level, only for a prescribed time after the polarity inversion of the write signal.

A perpendicular magnetic recording disk drive is discloses which performs a head positioning control operation effectively against a hard easy transition shift (HETS) phenomenon. In the disk drive, a CPU performs an offset correcting operation in positioning control mode after a seek operation, using an offset value set on the basis of the HETS phenomenon from a memory when data is recorded.

A disk drive includes a casing which houses a disk-shaped recording medium, a drive motor which holds and rotates the recording medium, a head which performs read/write operations, a head actuator movably supporting the head to move the head relative to the recording medium, and a board unit connected to the head actuator. The board unit has a board main body arranged on the inner surface of the casing and at least one capacitor, mounted on the board main body for supplying power to perform a retracting operation for permitting the head actuator to move the head to a retracted position.

In a disk drive that performs perpendicular magnetic recording, the read/write channel has a sync mark generator. The sync mark generator generates a second sync mark before the read/write channel operates to write data on a disk. The second sync mark has a bit pattern including a series of bits representing positive polarity and a series of bits representing negative polarity. The series of bits, which is longer than the other, has a bit length that is at least 50% but less than 85% of the total bit length of the second sync mark.
