ABSTRACT:
A disc drive data storage system according to the present invention comprises a housing, a central axis, a stationary member which is fixed with respect to the housing and coaxial with the central axis, and a rotatable member which is rotatable about the central axis with respect to the stationary member. At least one data storage disc is attached to and is coaxial with the rotatable member. Upper and lower ball bearing assemblies interconnect the stationary member and the rotatable member. At least one rotor magnet is attached to the rotatable member. A back-iron is supported by the stationary member. A stator winding is attached to the back-iron and has a slotless structure. The rotor magnet, back-iron and stator winding have a common axial position along the central axis and the stator winding is magnetically coupled to the rotor magnet such that the stator winding and the rotor magnet cooperate to reduce excitation of pure tone vibrations in the disc drive data storage system and to reduce transfer of the vibrations to the housing through the ball bearing assemblies.
