Abstract: A hard disk drive includes an actuator arm pivoting over a disk around a pivot shaft as a center of rotation to allow a read/write head to access data on the disk, a bobbin provided at the opposite side to the read/write head with respect to a pivot shaft holder that rotatably supports the pivot shaft, and a voice coil coupled to the bobbin. The bobbin includes a bobbin body coupled an end portion of the voice coil adjacent to the pivot shaft holder, and a plurality of bobbin legs extending from an end portion of the bobbin body toward areas of the other end portion of the voice coil that are separated from each other, and coupled to the areas of the other end portion of the voice coil that are separated from each other.

Abstract: Provided are an HSA with reduced off-track and an HDD including the HSA. The HSA includes a swing arm rotatably mounted on a base member of an HDD; a connecting plate coupled to a front edge of the swing arm; a suspension coupled to the connecting plate to vibrate finely; a pair of hinges disposed on both sides of a center line of the suspension to connect the connecting plate to the suspension; and a head slider that is a recording or reproducing medium of data mounted on the front edge of the suspension. When a hinge between the pair of hinges, which is closer to a center of the disk of the HDD than the other is, is referred to as a first hinge and the other hinge is referred to as a second hinge, the first hinge has a thickness greater than a thickness of the second hinge.

Abstract: Provided are a head stack assembly (HSA) with reduced off-track, a hard disk drive including the HSA, and a method of reducing the off-track of the hard disk drive. The HSA includes a swing arm rotatably mounted on a base member of a hard disk drive (HDD); a connecting plate coupled to a front edge of the swing arm; a suspension coupled to the connecting plate to vibrate finely; a pair of hinges disposed on both sides of a center line of the suspension to connect the connecting plate to the suspension; a piezoelectric material layer including a piezoelectric material which is disposed on only one hinge of the pair of hinges, wherein the hinge is closer to a center of a disk in the HDD than the other is; and a head slider that is a recording or reproducing medium of data mounted on the front edge of the suspension.

Abstract: An actuator assembly usable un a hard disk drive includes an actuator arm having an arm hole to improve dynamic characteristics. The actuator arm of the actuator assembly has an arm hole having first, second, and third extended portions, and two members positioned at both sides of the arm hole. The first extended portion is formed at an edge positioned at a leading end of the arm hole so that each of leading ends of the two members has a first reduced width, the second extended portions are formed at edges positioned at a rear end of the arm hole so that each of rear ends of the two members has a second reduced width, and the third extended portions are formed at both sides of a middle portion of the arm hole so that each of middle portions of the two members has a third reduced width.
