Abstract
A high-capacity magnetic disk comprises a support, a non-magnetic layer and a magnetic layer having a thickness less than 0.15 &mgr;m and containing ferromagnetic powder selected from fine particles of ferromagnetic metal or fine particles of ferromagnetic hexagonal ferrite dispersed in a binder, and the magnetic disk has a track width less than 5 &mgr;m and can record signals having a bit length less than 0.5 &mgr;m, wherein the ratio of the track width to the average major axis length or tabular diameter of ferromagnetic particles is from 50 to 100, the ratio of the shortest bit length to the average major axis length or tabular diameter of ferromagnetic particles is from 3 to 20, and the thickness of magnetic layer has a variation coefficient of 0.5 or below, expressed in terms of a ratio of the standard deviation to the average thickness of the magnetic layer.
