In the device, the yoke includes a bent portion and the hub includes a flange which protrudes below and outwardly from a disk mounting portion of the hub and which has an upper surface having an inner diameter substantially equal to an inner diameter of the bent portion of the yoke. The flange is located below a disk mounting portion, and the flange is fixedly held between the inner surface of the bent portion of the yoke and the upper end face of the drive magnet unit.
