A head-gimbal assembly. The head-gimbal assembly includes a suspension, a microactuator disposed on the suspension, and a head-slider bonded to the microactuator. The head-gimbal assembly further includes a connection pad disposed on the suspension, a connection pad disposed on the microactuator and formed over an edge between a side surface and a top surface of the microactuator to have a bend portion with an obtuse angle, and a metallic interconnection joint for interconnecting the connection pad of the suspension with the connection pad of the microactuator.

A disk drive configured with micro-actuator interconnect conditioning. The disk drive includes a disk, a head, an actuator, a piezoelectric element, a hardened conductive adhesive, a voltage-supply circuit, and a controller. The head is configured to access the disk. The actuator includes a suspension supporting the head, and an arm supporting the suspension. The piezoelectric element is disposed on the suspension, is electrically connected to a first drive line and a second drive line, and is configured to change the position of the head. The hardened conductive adhesive is electrically connected to at least one connecting part of the piezoelectric element and the first drive line. The voltage-supply circuit is configured to supply a voltage to the piezoelectric element. The controller is configured to control a voltage-control circuit each time a designated process is executed, and to apply a voltage to the piezoelectric element with a prescribed maximum absolute value.

A magnetic disk apparatus includes a dual head equipped with an MR head for reading data and an inductive head for writing the data. One ID portion and one servo pattern are disposed in one sector and an unequal track pitch is formed. The ID portion is formed at the center of a radius of two positions to which the MR head is positioned at the time of reading the data and writing the data, respectively.

A rotor magnet is attached to the inner peripheral portion of a hub to attach a magnetic disk or the like and a stator is provided in the outer peripheral portion of a bearing housing so as to face the rotor magnet, thereby forming a rotating mechanism. A magnetic pre-load mechanism is provided and a spindle is pressed to one side of a radial bearing, thereby stabilizing the rotation.

A magnetic disk unit comprising a one-piece carriage structure having a small thermal off-tracking amount, with the carriage structure including a rotary shaft; guide arms integrally supported on a guide-arm retainer at their proximal ends and extending independently and parallely; bearing retainers formed on both ends of the guide-arm retainer; and bearings fixed on the bearing retainers rotatably connecting the guide-arm retainer to the rotary shaft. A center line in a direction of thickness of the outermost guide arm is located outside of that of the bearing in a direction of height thereof, and a concave portion is continuously formed on the bearing retainer. Thermal coefficients of expansion of the guide arms and the guide-arm retainer are substantially equal, with the carriage structure being fashioned of an alloy mainly containing Al and Si, eutectic crystal Si particles in the guide arm and/or the guide-arm retainer. The average value of the longest eutectic crystal Si particles therein is 1.6 .mu.m or less or the number of the eutectic crystal Si particles if 5.0 or more per 100 .mu.m.sup.2. In the carriage of manufacturing the carriage of the carriage structure is heated for five to fifteen hours at a temperature of 300.degree. to 500.degree. C. after die casting.

A favorable balance of mass and strength is provided by the truss type beam formed through the use of triangular apertures in the head arm, which further can be arranged to provide a greater leading edge beam strength than trailing edge beam strength. With increased density of data and correspondingly decreased flying height, favorable results are obtained by making the outermost yaw angle greater than the innermost yaw angle. Mass unbalance can be corrected by shifting the coil position.

A head positioning system includes data head arms for supporting a data head, support head arms for supporting a support head, and a head actuator for rigidly moving the data and servo head arms as a unitary structure. When there is mounted an amplifier or the like is mounted on at least one of the head arms to change the warping amount depending upon the change in the environmental temperature, a portion of the head arm on which the amplifier is mounted is cut away therefrom but is left partly connected thereto, so that the head arms are all warped in nearly the same amount.
