A slider is mounted to a rotary drive mechanism. The slider is loaded, i.e., moved toward and positioned near a disk surface, by rotary movement of the rotary drive mechanism in a first rotary direction. Similarly, the slider is unloaded, i.e., moved away from the disk surface, by rotary movement of the rotary drive mechanism in a second rotary direction which is the reverse direction of the first rotary direction.
