A magnetic disc drive storage system includes a magnetic storage disc and a proximate recording head. The proximate recording head is used for proximity reading and writing of information on the surface of the magnetic storage disc. An idle fly zone is provided on the surface of the magnetic storage disc. During idle periods, the proximity recording head is positioned over the landing fly zone. The landing fly zone provides a smooth surface to the proximity recording head whereby wear and particulate generate at the head/disc interface are reduced.
