Abstract: In a magnetic disk apparatus including a magnetic head and a magnetic disk medium having projections provided with a constant regularity, a rotating portion for driving the rotation of the magnetic disk medium is controlled by a control section in accordance with the regularity of the projections provided on the magnetic disk medium, a resonance frequency of the magnetic head and a relative speed of the magnetic disk medium to the magnetic head in order to prevent the resonance of the magnetic head from being caused by the projections of the magnetic disk medium. With such a construction, it is possible to realize the stabilization of floatation of the magnetic head in the magnetic disk apparatus, thereby providing a magnetic disk apparatus which has a low floating height and a high reliability.

Abstract: A magnetic recording medium for longitudinal recording uses a non-magnetic substrate made of glass ceramics that is suitable for high density recording with low noise. The magnetic recording medium is obtained by forming a magnetic recording film mainly containing cobalt on a non-magnetic glass substrate through a non-magnetic underlaying film made of Cr. Further a non-magnetic covering film is formed thereon. With respect to the crystal orientation of the faces of cobalt measured by X-ray diffraction, the diffraction intensity of the (0002) face is 1.5 times or more and 8 times or less the total diffraction intensities of the other faces.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a high-density magnetic recording medium (or "media" as it is sometimes called) for a recording/reproduction system (such as thosed used in computer disk drives) and, more particularly, to a magnetic recording medium having a plurality of magnetic recording layers such that the uppermost layer is comparatively thinner and more densely structured than the lower magnetic recording layers. The present magnetic recording medium comprises a non-magnetic plated substrate, a non-magnetic underlying layer laminated on the plated substrate, a plurality of magnetic alloy layers including the uppermost layer laminated onto the underlying layer, a non-magnetic covering layer laminated onto the uppermost layer, and a lubricating layer formed onto the non-magnetic covering layer.
