A disk drive includes, on a base (5), at least one recording disk (8D) rotated by a spindle motor (8), a carriage (1) equipped with heads (7) for executing read/write operations with the recording disk and a voice coil motor (9) for driving the carriage, the carriage including an arm portion (11) for mounting the heads at a distal end thereof, a main body (13) equipped with a rotary shaft (12) and a rotor portion (14) serving as the rotor of the voice coil motor (9). The carriage structure is capable of reducing noise and accomplishing a high transfer rate. A control IC (121) in the form of a bare chip is packaged to a connection portion of the flexible circuit board (2) and the carriage by a flip packaging method, and other chip components are packaged by a surface packaging technology. The space at which the head IC, the servo IC and the peripheral circuits are disposed integratedly can be secured at the connection portion of the flexible circuit board with the carriage. Therefore, the noise at the time of read/write by the heads can be reduced and a transfer rate can be improved while heat radiation by the components can be taken into consideration. <IMAGE> |
