According to one embodiment, a magnetic disk device is disclosed. The magnetic disk device includes a magnetic disk including a plurality of tracks. The plurality of tracks each includes a plurality of servo areas, and the plurality of servo areas each include first servo data including data regarding eccentricity of the magnetic disk. The magnetic disk device further includes a head configured to write data to the magnetic disk and read data written to the magnetic disk. The magnetic disk device further includes a controller configured to determine whether floating of the head from the magnetic disk is abnormal or not based on a signal corresponding to the first servo data read by the head while writing the data on the magnetic disk by the head.
