Abstract: PURPOSE: To obtain a disk drive enclosure structure where a special form whose draft is zero is used in a die casting process. CONSTITUTION: A data storage disk drive 10 includes a spindle, which supports plural disks on the surface of a magnetic disk which are rotated around a common shaft and form a spindle assembly 18, and a rotary actuator which supports plural magnetic transducers on the surface of each disk. The disk drive includes a die cast disk drive enclosure structure 12 including the surface to which a spindle motor shaft and an actuator bearing shaft are set and where a predeterminate draft is zero. The enclosure structure includes a base cast member 14, which holds an electric connector arranged on the outside, and a cover cast member 16. The disk drive includes an electric passage from a flexible circuit to a comb-shaped part of the actuator. The disk drive includes a tubular chemical air filter arranged in a groove for diffusion integrated with the cover as one body.
