PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress an influence of a single latch for locking an actuator upon latch performance, and to suppress vibration thereof. SOLUTION: An HDD includes a single latch 18 for stopping the actuator rotated by an inertia force of an external force. The latch stops the rotation of the actuator to a data area side by the inertia force of the external force, so as to lock the actuator. When the actuator is positioned on a magnetic disk, the latch is in an open position by means of a magnetic bias force to a magnetic substance pin 187. A yoke configuring a portion of a voice coil motor has a protrusion 62. A magnetic flux from the protrusion produces the magnetic bias force. A tip face 623 of the protrusion has an inclination. By this, it is possible to suppress the influence of the latch upon the latch performance while suppressing the vibration thereof. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
