A disc drive has a loader, a traverse, a circuit board and a supporting frame. The loader has a first side wall, a second side wall and a third side wall that is perpendicular to the first side wall and the second side wall. The circuit board has a first side, a second side and a third side that is perpendicular to the first side and the second side. The supporting frame extends from the second side wall of the loader and has a supporting surface. The third side of the circuit board is shorter than the third side wall of the loader, and the second side of the circuit board is disposed on the supporting surface of the supporting frame.

An actuating module includes an actuating member, a magnetic plunger engaging the actuating member due to magnetic power and capable of disengaging the actuating member upon receipt of an actuating signal, and a flexible flat cable. The flexible flat cable includes a plurality of laterally connected data wires. The data wires includes at least one branch wire connected electrically to the magnetic plunger for transmitting the actuating signal to the magnetic plunger so as to release the actuating member.

A recording and reproducing apparatus includes a tray disposed within an outer casing and movable along a tray moving direction between retracted and extended positions. A positioning structure includes a locking member fixed on the outer casing, and a support member for immobilizing the locking member with respect to the outer casing in such a manner that the locking member extends upwardly into the outer casing to prevent movement of the tray with respect to the outer casing. A protrusion portion of the outer casing surrounding the locking member and extending in the moving direction defines the support member.
