Abstract

The invention provides a magnetic disk apparatus capable of stabilizing seek control. A VCM resistance estimation unit (9A) estimates a VCM resistance in a voice coil motor (4) based on an acceleration and a velocity of a magnetic head with a VCM voltage saturated, and an equivalent current force constant estimation unit (9B) estimates an equivalent current force constant of the voice coil motor (4) based on the acceleration and the velocity of the magnetic head with the VCM voltage saturated. A seek control unit (9C) performs a seek control based on the VCM resistance and the equivalent current force constant of the voice coil motor (4).

Description
