PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technology for improving positioning accuracy of an information reading component such as an optical pickup. SOLUTION: In a disk drive 10, a supply voltage control section 32 controls a voltage applied to a thread motor 5 to transfer an optical pickup 3 in accordance with a voltage control pattern set according to the target transfer distance of the optical pickup 3. A correction section 34 adjusts the voltage control pattern according to a difference between the actual transfer distance of the optical pickup 3 obtained in the past and the target transfer distance. Specifically, a transfer error calculation section 28 obtains an average value of differences between the actual transfer distances obtained more than once in the past and the target transfer distance. When the absolute value of the average value exceeds a predetermined threshold, the correction section 34 adjusts the timing for performing a brake pattern. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
