Abstract

A magnetic head supporting mechanism includes a slider fixed to a slider spacer which is in turn fixed to a gimbal via a single area which is smaller than a contact area between the slider spacer and the gimbal so that the variation in the flying height of the slider is reduced and the positioning error due to the positional shifting of the head is also reduced. With this arrangement, it is possible to achieve a high-capacity magnetic disk storage device capable of operating at a high speed.
