A disk evaluating device includes a PR equalizer that equalizes reproduced signals from a disk to a response waveform of a partial response of a predetermined class, a maximum likelihood detector that performs maximum likelihood decoding on output signals from the PR equalizer, and an evaluating unit that classifies binary data output from the maximum likelihood detector into bit patterns of strings of consecutive bits, each of the strings having a predetermined length, and obtaines a histogram of amplitudes of the output signals from the PR equalizer for each of the bit patterns.
