Abstract: According to an embodiment, a magnetic disk device includes a magnetic disk, a spindle motor that rotates the magnetic disk, a motor driver, and a controller. The motor driver supplies a motor current to the spindle motor and measures a counter electromotive voltage of the spindle motor every time the spindle motor makes one rotation. After the rotation of the magnetic disk starts, the controller adjusts a motor position where the counter electromotive voltage is measured to a set first position.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a magnetic disk device includes a magnetic disk, a magnetic head, an actuator, a controller, and a ramp. The magnetic head is configured to record data on and reproduce data from the magnetic disk. The actuator is configured to move the magnetic head relative to the magnetic disk. The controller is configured to control the actuator. The ramp is configured to hold the magnetic head. The controller is configured to, in a retract operation for causing the actuator to retract the magnetic head to the ramp, alternate detection of a back electromotive force of the actuator and application of a voltage corresponding to the back electromotive force to the actuator, and skip the detection of the back electromotive force a predetermined number of times in response to an event that the magnetic head moves at a speed outside a predetermined range.
