According to one embodiment, first, a frequency to be corrected by an MA additional filter is specified based on a head position error spectrum and a multi-rate sensitivity characteristic, in a state before the MA additional filter is added. Then, a candidate in which a peak of the multi-rate sensitivity characteristic is equal to or less than a threshold value and a head position error is minimized is determined as the MA additional filter to be used, in a state in which each of a plurality of candidates of the MA additional filter is added.
