摘要:
Disclosed is a method for erasing data recorded on a magnetic disk, which is housed in a magnetic disk drive, by using an external erasure magnetic field generated by an external erasure magnetic field generator. The method comprises the steps of: moving a first magnetic disk drive within an external erasure magnetic field in a moving state appropriate for the type of the first magnetic disk drive, and erasing data recorded on a magnetic disk in the first magnetic disk drive; and moving a second magnetic disk drive, which differs in type from the first magnetic disk drive, within an external erasure magnetic field in a moving state that differs from the moving state of the first magnetic disk drive, and erasing data recorded on a magnetic disk in the second magnetic disk drive.

To prevent a spindle motor from stopping rotation while data on a magnetic disk is being erased by using a permanent magnet 151. Data in the whole area of the magnetic disk 113 is erased as a consequence of the magnetic disk 113 rotating in the magnetic field of the permanent magnet 151 located so as to face a part of the magnetic disk 113. A back yoke 161 is located so as to face a base 111. The back yoke 161 gives a magnetic force to the spindle motor in the opposite direction of the magnetic force of the erasing permanent magnet 151 so that the fluid dynamic bearing spindle motor can retain the rotation as required without stopping rotation.
