摘要： A spindle motor assembly for a hard disk drive which has a fluid filled tube that dynamically balances the spindle motor. The assembly may include a hub which is rotated by an internal motor. A plurality of disks may be coupled to the hub and separated by a number of spacers. In one embodiment, the fluid filled tube is attached to the hub. In another embodiment, the fluid filled tube is attached to the spacer. The fluid within the tube is allowed to move during rotation of the hub. Movement of the fluid may dynamically balance the spindle motor.

摘要： A hard disk drive that includes a disk, a head, and a filter enclosed by a base plate and a cover plate. The base plate has a filter wall with a fore end and an aft end. The fore end of the filter wall has a tapered surface that extends to an apex. The distal end of the filter wall has a first filter attachment portion separated from a second filter attachment portion by a groove. The second filter attachment portion may be longer than the first filter attachment portion. The filter wall induces a flow of air that inhibits particle attachment to a reverse side of the filter.

摘要： A hard disk drive with a circuit that provides a control signal to a voice coil motor to move a head across a disk. The circuit includes a repeatable run-out estimator in a feed forward control loop to control the movement of the head. The repeatable run-out estimator compensates for a constant bias torque disturbance in the drive.

摘要： RRO corrector function is formulated to partition the contribution of micro-actuator control from the other voice coil assembly contributions. Single stage actuation is supported by zeroing the micro-actuator control queue, otherwise multi-stage actuation is supported. The multi-stage actuation may include dual stage actuation and in some embodiments triple stage actuation. Triple stage further partitions RRO corrector function for the contribution of the second micro-actuator. Method of initializing an assembled hard disk drive creates hard disk drive as product, using the written-in parameter list for track on the disk surface to recreate the RRO corrector as RRO corrector filter using queues updated by NRRO corrector.
