A head-slider. The head-slider includes a pair of leading-edge air-bearing surfaces formed on a leading-edge portion of a disk-facing slider-surface of the head-slider, a center air-bearing surface formed at a central portion of a trailing-edge portion of the disk-facing slider-surface, and a magnetic-recording head disposed at the central portion of the trailing-edge portion. At least one leading-edge air-bearing surface of the pair has a form of a partially truncated rectangle with a longitudinal axis of the partially truncated rectangle oriented substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the head-slider. The partially truncated rectangle is defined by a rectangle truncated so that a first corner portion on the inside-diameter side of the leading-edge air-bearing surface and a second corner portion on the outside-diameter side of the leading-edge air-bearing surface have been cut away to form a vertex of the partially truncated rectangle in proximity to the leading edge of the head-slider.
