According to one embodiment, a slider of a head has a negative-pressure cavity which is formed in a facing surface, a leading step portion, a trailing step portion, a pair of side step portions which protrude from the facing surface and extend in the longitudinal direction, and a pair of skirt portions. Each of the skirt portions has a proximal end portion and an extended end portion, which is situated on the downstream end side of the slider and nearer to the trailing step portion with respect to the proximal end portion and faces the trailing step portion with a gap therebetween. The skirt portion is disposed in a region E which contains a line connecting the proximal end portion and the extended end portion and an area situated on the opposite side of the line with respect to the trailing step portion.
