Abstract
A disk drive housing structure has a rotating disk for recording information and a transducer adapted to write and read information on and from the disk. The structure further includes a positioning system having at least an arm to which the transducer is fixed and which is adapted to selectively position the transducer along the radial direction of the disk transducer by turning the arm. The structure also includes a member on which the disk, transducer and positioning system are mounted, wherein the mounting member includes a first housing which supports thereon both ends of a rotary shaft of the recording medium and both ends of a rotary shaft of the positioning system, and which has a first aperture part. The first housing further includes a second aperture part through which the disk and the rotary shaft supporting the disk are inserted and to which a supporting member for the rotary shaft of the recording medium is fixed.
