The structure is made such that an aerodynamic latch is provided in an outer portion of a magnetic disc, a front end portion exposed to a wind in the aerodynamic latch is formed to be shorter than an outer peripheral surface of the magnetic disc, and the wind receiving portion of the aerodynamic latch moves an air stream outlet from an end surface of the magnetic disc and a shroud in a direction of forming a flow passage for passing through a portion apart from the magnetic disc. Accordingly, a stable aerodynamic latch drive can be achieved and an air stream within the disc is not disturbed, so that it is possible to reduce a flutter and a consumed electric power.

A disk drive unit includes a rotary member, which has a spindle, and has an information-recording disk fixedly mounted thereon, and a bearing unit rotatably supporting the spindle. The bearing unit includes a radial bearing device, provided in opposed relation to an outer peripheral surface of the spindle, and a thrust bearing device provided in opposed relation to a distal end surface of the spindle. The radial bearing device has a concentric arc-shaped bearing surface, which is concentric with the circular outer periphery of the spindle, and a non-concentric arc-shaped bearing surface which is non-concentric with the circular outer periphery of the spindle. The disk drive unit further includes a motor for imparting a rotational force to the spindle, and a lubricating fluid filled in the bearing unit.
