A system and method are disclosed for a subambient pressure air bearing slider utilizing negative pressure grooves. In one embodiment, a groove extends from a slider's leading edge, splits, and terminates in two locations at the slider's trailing edge. In one embodiment, a groove is provided in a slider's compression pad near the trailing edge of the slider.

A method and mechanism for visually inspecting both sides of components for a hard disk drive are disclosed. The components are stored in the containment units of a packing tray, with an exchange tray with matching containment units placed above and in contact with the packing tray. The components could be magnetic read/write heads, head gimbal assemblies, or other parts of hard disk drive. The two trays are rotated, using gravity to cause the components to move from the packing containment unit to the exchange containment unit.

A micro-actuator that reduces suspension tongue stiffness and a method of manufacturing the micro-actuator are disclosed. In one embodiment, the micro-actuator has a base piece with two arms extending from the base piece. The electric contact pads for the arms are situated on the exterior of the arms at the end opposite the base piece. In one embodiment, the electric contact pads are electrically coupled to the same connection plate that the magnetic read/write head is coupled to, reducing the number of connection traces.
摘要:
A framing assembly with lower stiffness design and a method of manufacturing that framing assembly are disclosed. In one embodiment, a framing assembly pattern is cut from a piece of a thin planar material, such as metal. The pattern is then bent to form a framing assembly with a base piece, two arms, and supports for a connection plate. In an alternate embodiment, the base piece includes a rear support and a support base. In a further embodiment, excess material surrounding the pattern is cut away so as to allow the most efficient use of the material.

A system and method are disclosed for preventing computer storage media surface contaminant accumulation and for preventing impact-related head/slider damage. Such a system may include a component having a plurality of pads, where the component is to collect contaminants between a media surface and the component as the media and component move with respect to each other: and the contaminants are collected by the component via interaction between the number of pads and an airflow.

A hard disk drive device and method for assembling such a device are provided. The hard disk drive device includes storage medium components comprising a drive motor and disk for digital data storage, which are attached to a section of a casing that encloses the drive's mechanical components. Opposite the storage medium components, the read/write components including the actuator assembly, and heads are attached to a different section of the casing.
摘要:
A system and method using a connection plate to electrically couple a magnetic read/write head to a printed circuit assembly. The connection plate has a set of contact pads to control reads and a set of contact pads to control. The printed circuit assembly also allows control of the micro-actuator arms. The connection plate can be attached to a framing assembly of the micro-actuator by laser welding or by using an ultraviolet cured epoxy.
