Zusammenfassung:According to one embodiment, a controller in a magnetic disk device saves a write data sequence including a plurality of write data blocks not written to a disk, and first management information, for the plurality of write data blocks, from which logical block addresses are excluded, in a nonvolatile memory in response to a decrease in a voltage of a power supply for the magnetic disk device. The plurality of write data blocks are added with redundancy codes respectively. Logical block addresses of the plurality of write data blocks are embedded in the redundancy codes respectively.
