An object of the present invention is to obtain a hard disk substrate that can have a smooth surface of a plating film through electroless NiP plating and does not have deteriorated corrosion resistance against acid solutions. A method for producing a hard disk substrate of the present invention is a method for producing a hard disk substrate with an electroless NiP plating film, the method including immersing a substrate in a first electroless NiP plating bath containing an additive with leveling action, thereby forming a lower layer of the electroless NiP plating film on a surface of the substrate, the lower layer having smaller average surface roughness than the surface; and immersing the substrate that has the lower layer of the electroless NiP plating film formed thereon through the first plating step in a second electroless NiP plating bath, thereby forming an upper layer of the electroless NiP plating film, the upper layer having corrosion resistance against acid solutions and having a thickness of greater than or equal to 4 μm. |
