Abstract
An HDD, to which servo data is written, is fixed on a base. As an upper base moves, a both-end supporting mechanism provided on the upper base approaches a rotation shaft which supports a disk. When the both-end supporting mechanism is brought into full contact with the tip portion of the free end of the rotation shaft, a process of writing servo data is carried out on the disk. While writing the servo data, the rotation shaft is maintained in the both-end supported state, and therefore a non-repeatable vibration of the rotation shaft caused by a rotation of a spindle motor is suppressed. After the servo data writing process, the both-end supporting mechanism is withdrawn from the rotation shaft as the upper base moves.
