A disc memory apparatus allows its magnetic head to reach a target track in a short period of time, wherein address data is recorded on each two-track width corresponding to each of the even-numbered and the odd-numbered tracks; either of two kinds of burst signals is recorded on each one-track width corresponding to each of the even-numbered and the odd-numbered tracks; the address of the record track is detected, based on the result of a comparison of two kinds of burst signals and the first address data, or in addition to this, the detected address data is further offset by the second address data; since the lengths of the servo sector areas required to detect the address data are shortened, the address data of the magnetic head are detected to a higher accuracy using a smaller number of reference signals; and the magnetic head can be moved at a fast speed, thus in a short period of time, resulting in a short seek time.
