Abstract

A magnetic-disk glass substrate of the present invention includes a pair of main surfaces, a side wall surface, and a chamfered surface between the main surfaces and the side wall surface. Regarding surface properties of at least one of the side wall surface and the chamfered surface of the glass substrate, an arithmetic average roughness (Ra) is 0.015 μm or less, and a bearing factor of a roughness cross-sectional area when a roughness percentage is 60% is 95% or more in a bearing curve of a roughness cross-sectional area.
