There is disclosed a write compensator which suppresses bit shift caused by distortion of a read signal waveform of a read head in a disk drive adopting a perpendicular magnetic recording system. The write compensator executes write compensation during recording data based on the known relationship between bit shift which is beyond an allowable range and a pattern of a data bit string of a data signal. A write amplifier converts the write-compensated data signal into an electrical signal by using the write compensator so as to suppress the bit shift, and supplies it to a write head.
