Abstract
A magnetic disk storage apparatus has a head holding member which holds a magnetic head at a predetermined position apart from a magnetic disk after recording or reproducing in order to prevent either or both from getting damage. Since the location of the head holding member can be adjusted by the position adjusting mechanism, the head holding member never shade any recordable region of the magnetic disk and the magnetic head and the magnetic disk never come into contact with each other. Therefore the head holding member is always located at an appropriate position.
