Abstract
This invention provides a magnetic disk device having a total memory capacity of 30 giga bytes or more, or more desirably 30.about.40 giga bytes. The magnetic disk used in this magnetic disk device has a plane record density of 45.about.80 mega bits per square inch. The thin film magnetic head has a pole thickness (P.sub.T), a magnetic flux density (B.sub.s), a magnetic gap depth (G.sub.d) and a record wavelenth (.lambda.) which satisfy the formula EQU G.sub.d .ltoreq.0.13 P.sub.T B.sub.s (.lambda.+4.3)-2.1. The magnetic disk rotation means rotate the magnetic disk at a speed of 24 m per second or more.
