Abstract

An improved magnetic disk recording device having a smooth recording medium layer covered with a protective film layer whose surface is formed with radially extending sinusoidal jogs or undulations defining a surface roughness greater than that of the underlying recording medium. These jogs act to avoid wear due to the adhesiveness between the device and a recording or reproducing head. The jogged protective film layer is formed by using a solvent of specified boiling point in a spin-coating process.
