The present invention provides a disk recording-playback device comprising a laser drive circuit 15 for feeding a drive signal to an optical head 4 and adjusting the power of a laser beam irradiated by the optical head 4, an error correcting circuit 11 for detecting an error rate of a reproduced signal, and a system controller 10 for controlling operation of the laser drive circuit for signal reproduction and signal recording based on the output of the error correcting circuit 11. The system controller 10 successively sets the laser powers to at least three different values, obtains evaluation data for each laser power, approximates the relationships between the laser powers and the evaluation data to a quadratic curve, whereby an optimum laser power is derived corresponding to a vertex of the quadratic curve. Accordingly the optimum reproduction power and recording power are set, to thereby record and reproduce signals with high accuracy. <IMAGE>
