Abstract: According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a recording medium of a disk form, a magnetic head, a housing, and a first protective member made of a resin. The recording medium includes a recording layer. The magnetic head is configured to read/write information from/to the recording medium. The housing includes a base provided with an inner chamber in which the recording medium and the magnetic head are accommodated, a cover that covers the inner chamber, and a welded part at which the base and the cover are welded to each other. The first protective member is located outside the housing, to cover at least part of the welded part.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a magnetic disk and a rotary unit. The magnetic disk is rotatable about a first rotation axis extending in the first direction. The rotary unit includes a rotary member, a bearing, and a first filter. The bearing contains a lubricant and rotatably supports the rotary member about a second rotation axis. The first filter captures at least one component contained in the lubricant. The rotary member is provided with a hole and a first communication port. The hole extends along the second rotation axis to accommodate the bearing. The first communication port extends in a direction intersecting the second rotation axis to allow the hole to be in communication with an outside of the rotary member. The first filter is disposed in the first communication port or covers the first communication port.
