Abstract
A wired flexure comprises a substrate formed of an electrically conductive material, a read wire provided on the substrate so as to extend along the substrate, a write wire provided on the substrate so as to extend along the read wire, a slit formed between the read and write wires, etc. The slit extends along the read and write wires and divides the substrate between a first portion on the read wire side and a second portion on the write wire side. The slit is situated nearer to the read wire than to the write wire.
