Abstract: According to one embodiment, a magnetic recording device includes a magnetic head, a first electrical circuit, and a second electrical circuit. The magnetic head includes a magnetic pole, a first shield, a conductive member electrically connecting the magnetic pole and the first shield and being provided between the magnetic pole and the first shield, and a coil. The first electrical circuit is configured to supply a first current to the magnetic pole, the conductive member, and the first shield. The second electrical circuit is configured to supply a recording current to the coil. A recording magnetic field is generated from the magnetic pole. The recording magnetic field corresponds to the recording current. A rise time of the recording current is not less than 65% of a shortest bit length.
