    摘要: A disc drive utilizes ramp load unload technology. A ramp component of the disc drive includes a recess that reduces the contact surface area of the ramp component that supports an actuator assembly to unload a slider of the disc drive. The actuator assembly may include a lift tab that interacts with the ramp component to hold the slider off a media disc when the slider is unloaded.

    摘要: A head crash in a hard disc drive is predicted by periodically measuring a head-disc contact energy level on an actuator arm supporting the head and identifying a predetermined change in the energy level between at least two energy level measurements. The head-disc contact energy level is measured by a positioning microactuator on the actuator arm, and comparing that energy level to a threshold established during an earlier or selected contact start-stop cycle. A circuit is coupled to the microactuator and is periodically operable to identify a magnitude of contact energy. An indicator is coupled to the circuit and responsive to the representations to indicate presence of symptoms of an impending crash.
