Spindle motor structure and hard disk drive employing the same

摘要

A spindle motor structure including a spindle motor installed on a base and having a hydrodynamic bearing supporting a shaft to be capable of rotating using hydrodynamic pressure and a driving source rotating the shaft using an electromagnetic force. A circuit board is installed to face the base and supplies driving power to the driving source. A heater is installed on the circuit board at a position facing the hydrodynamic bearing and heats the hydrodynamic bearing.
