Loading method and drive unit for a floating magnetic head for loading the magnetic head while preventing contact between the magnetic head and a magnetic disk

摘要

A method of loading a magnetic head for the purpose of floating the magnetic head on a rotating magnetic recording medium, in which the magnetic head is brought close to a magnetic recording medium from a venting end section of an air flow area in order to obviate the area in which contact between the magnetic recording medium and the magnetic head is prevented and the magnetic head is made to float on the magnetic recording medium.
