A spindle motor includes a fixed shaft, a rotating sleeve, and an outer ring member. The rotating sleeve has an inner peripheral surface opposed to an outer peripheral surface of the fixed shaft across a first fine gap, an outer peripheral surface, and a bottom surface. The outer ring member has an opposite surface opposed to the bottom surface of the rotating sleeve across a second fine gap and an inner peripheral surface opposed to the outer peripheral surface of the rotating sleeve across a third fine gap and is provided fixedly. The first, second, and third fine gaps are filled with a dynamic pressure generating fluid. A first radial dynamic pressure generating portion is located singly in the first fine gap, and a second radial dynamic pressure generating portion in the third fine gap. A thrust dynamic pressure generating portion is located in the second fine gap. |
