[Effects of the Invention] As detailed in the above embodiment, the present invention processes the recording surface of a hard disk to be built into a fixed magnetic disk storage device by means such as laser processing or chemical processing, and A non-magnetic portion is formed by removing or changing the nature of an appropriate portion of the magnetic material on the surface. Then, a servo pattern for track control is formed by making the shape of the non-magnetic portion correspond to the cylinder set in the hard disk. Therefore, the servo pattern can be read out by the data head, and the position of the data head can be controlled by the readout output to position the data head on a predetermined track.

Furthermore, since the servo pattern can be formed directly on the hard disk alone, without using a servo writer device or a data head of the fixed magnetic disk storage device, mass productivity is significantly improved. Furthermore, since the non-magnetic portion of the servo pattern is not magnetized by external factors such as magnetism, there is no risk of the servo pattern being erased due to, for example, erroneous operation, which can also contribute to improved reliability.
