MAGNETIC RECORDING APPARATUS
First Claim
1. A magnetic recording apparatus configured to record data subjected to error correcting coding according to a shingled recording scheme, the magnetic recording apparatus comprising:
- a magnetic recording medium in which unit bits of the data subjected to error correcting coding are recorded with phase shifted between adjacent tracks;
a read head comprising a width covering a plurality of tracks and configured to read data from the plurality of tracks; and
a recording controller configured to record the data subjected to error correcting coding and a parity for the data in the plurality of tracks covered by the read head, in a divided manner.
