Abstract
A disk drive assembly includes an internal air filter which is placed adjacent to but downstream from, the actuator assembly area thereby to pass air which has been decelerated from the rotating disk and passed through the actuator assembly area to the rotating disk while simultaneously filtering this air to remove particles. By passing through the actuator assembly area the air cools the actuator assembly and removes certain particles from this area as it is filtered.
