Embodiments of the invention provide a disk drive that is capable of determining the offset of a magnetic head position through simple and easy processing in a case where the shingle write method is adopted, and that is capable of increasing the accuracy. In one embodiment, a disk drive comprises: a recording medium including data tracks, each of which is formed with part of the data track being overwritten by an adjacent data track on the inner circumferential side or by an adjacent data track on the outer circumferential side; a head assembly including a write head for writing information to the recording medium, and a read head for reading out information from the recording medium; and a control device for controlling a position of the head assembly relative to the recording medium. Position-error detection signals whose phases differ from each other are repeatedly written to the recording medium in the track direction with written positions of the position-error detection signals being deviated from each other by a track pitch in the track width direction; and the control device controls a position of the head assembly on the basis of a burst signal read by the read head.
