    摘要: A disk device includes magnetic disks, a magnetic head, a suspension, and a carriage. The suspension includes a flexible substrate on which the magnetic head is mounted. The carriage includes an arm to which the suspension is attached. The arm includes opposing first and second end surfaces, a side surface extending between the first end surface and the second end surface, and a protruding body that protrudes from the side surface and has a first surface parallel to and spaced apart from the first end surface and a second surface parallel to and spaced apart from the second end surface. The flexible substrate includes a strip extending along the side surface. The strip includes a portion positioned between the first end surface and the protruding body in the axial direction and is positioned between the first end surface and the second end surface in the axial direction.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a load beam, a first protrusion, a flexure, a slider, and a second element. The first protrusion protrudes from the load beam away from a rotation axis in a first direction. The flexure includes a mounting part supported by the first protrusion. The slider is mounted on the mounting part, and includes a first element that reads and writes information from and to a magnetic disk, and a floating surface facing the magnetic disk. The second element is attached to the slider apart from a geometric center of the floating surface in the first direction. On a projection plane as viewed in a direction orthogonal to the floating surface, a contact position between the first protrusion and the mounting part is located between a geometric center of the slider and a center of gravity of the second element.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a data processor includes an interface section and a processor. The interface section is configured to acquire partial data relating to a control condition of a magnetic recording/reproducing device. The processor is configured to process the partial data. The processor is configured to derive a first data by processing the partial data with a first model based on characteristics of the partial data, a first resolution of the first data being higher than a partial resolution of the partial data. The processor is configured to derive a second data by processing the partial data with a second model based on the characteristic. The second model is different from the first model. A second resolution of the second data being higher than the partial resolution.

    摘要: A hard disk drive head slider housing a read-write transducer includes electrical pads for bonding with a suspension flexure, electrically conductive bonding studs each extending into the slider body from a corresponding bonding pad, electrical pads for testing where each is positioned proximate to and at a distance from a corresponding bonding pad, electrically conductive testing studs each extending into the slider body from a corresponding testing pad, and a conductive layer within the slider body for electrically connecting a bonding pad with a corresponding testing pad via respective bonding and testing studs. This arrangement accomplishes the effects of a commonly-employed anti-wetting overlay separating the testing pad from the bonding pad, without the added cost, capital expenditure, process and yield difficulties associated with the anti-wetting overlay.

    摘要: A hard disk drive carriage arm includes a top depressed portion or indentation extending from a top surface toward a bottom surface and a bottom depressed portion or indentation extending from the bottom surface toward the top surface and opposing the top depressed portion. As such, a separating structure between the depressed portions partitions a corresponding balance hole, preferably at or near a mid-plane between the top and bottom surfaces. This configuration does not notably increase windage-based power loss while suppressing fluid force fluctuation, thereby stabilizing and balancing the airflow inside of the depressed portions.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, a magnetic head includes first to fourth shields, first to fourth terminals, and first magnetic member. The third shield includes a first partial region and a second partial region. The fourth shield includes a third partial region and a fourth partial region. The first magnetic member is provided between a portion of the first shield and a portion of the second shield in a first direction from the first shield to the second shield. The first magnetic member is provided between the first partial region and the third partial region in a second direction crossing the first direction. The portion of the first shield is located between the second partial region and the fourth partial region in the second direction.
