Abstract

A magnetic recording media formed of magnetic alloy layer of Co as the main component on a substrate through an under-layer, a protective layer and a lubricant layer, stacked in this order, said under-layer comprises plural under-layers including a first under layer of a substantially amorphous and a second under layer of crystalline stacked in this order; and a Δ BH[0.01, 50] defined by |BH[0.01%]−BH[50%]|, as the difference between a height BH[0.01%] where a Bearing ratio is 0.01% and a height BH[50%] where a Bearing ratio is 50%, is not less than 3 nm and not more than 6 nm, where a Bearing Curve is given by a surface roughness curve of magnetic recording media.
