Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention help to adjust the recess depth of a head element portion of a head slider. In an embodiment of the present invention, in a test step in manufacturing an HDD, the HDD examines the recess depth of a head element portion and decreases and adjusts the recess depth if the recess depth of the head element portion does not satisfy the predetermined condition. The HDD moves an actuator to a ramp of a retract position and supplies power to a heater in a head slider. If the heater power is large, the head element portion undergoes plastic deformation. The plastic deformation of the head element portion decreases the recess depth of the head element portion.
