Abstract

A magnetic storage apparatus includes a magnetic recording medium, a microwave assisted magnetic recording head at least equipped with a magnetic recording pole that generates a recording magnetic field for writing to the magnetic recording medium and a high-frequency oscillator that generates a high-frequency field, a magnetic reproducing head that reads information from the magnetic recording medium, a signal processing unit that processes a signal written by the magnetic recording head and a signal read by the magnetic reproducing head and a unit that controls clearance between the high-frequency oscillator and the magnetic recording medium. The magnetic storage apparatus has a characteristic that the high-frequency oscillator is not operated except in recording.
