The present invention provides a data recording device that can restrain the low-pass component in data to be written onto a recording medium without causing a problem in decoding the data using likelihood information. This data recording device includes: a data bit string combining unit that combines, by predetermined combining rules, a plurality of predetermined parity bit strings one by one with a data bit string obtained prior to a change to the bit order in a bit order rearranging procedure, thereby generating a plurality of composite data bit strings; and a data bit string selecting unit that selects one encoded data bit string from a plurality of encoded data bit strings generated through encoding procedures including the bit order rearranging procedure carried out for each of the plurality of composite data bit strings. Based on the selected encoded data bit string, the data recording device performs a data write operation onto the recording medium.
