Abstract
According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a magnetic disk, a magnetic head, a suspension, a ramp mechanism, a housing, and a screw. The suspension holds the magnetic head and moves between a load position and an unload position. The ramp mechanism includes a ramp member that holds the suspension at the unload position, and a cylindrical member with a through hole, being fixed to the ramp member. The housing includes a first support surface with a screw hole supporting the cylindrical member. The screw includes a screw head and a screw shaft fitted into the screw hole through the through hole. The screw holds the cylindrical member between the screw head and the first support surface. A contact area between the cylindrical member and the housing is set to larger than a contact area between the cylindrical member and the screw head.
