Abstract
A spindle motor has a stationary member, a hub rotatable relative to the hub, a stator mounted on the stationary member and a rotor magnet carried by the hub and facing the stator. The hub is provided with female-threaded holes for receiving screws for fixing a disk clamp member to the hub, and also with communication holes communicating with the female-threaded holes and opening to the exterior of the hub. The hub further has a seal member for sealing the openings of the communication holes. The hub is rotatably supported by the shaft member through a pair of bearings. The stator has a stator stack of a stack height or thickness greater than the spacing of the pair of bearings.
