A method of manufacturing master disks for magnetic transferring, by which a metal disk of a prescribed thickness is formed by electroforming over an original disk on which a convexo-concave pattern matching transfer information is formed, a master substrate is fabricated from the metal disk peeled off the original disk, and a magnetic layer is formed over the convexo-concave pattern of the master substrate,
- the method comprising the steps of:
- monitoring either continuously or at prescribed intervals of time the content concentrations in an electroforming bath used for the electroforming, and
- carrying out bath adjustment to maintain the content concentrations in the electroforming bath within a prescribed range.
