ABSTRACT:
A magnetic disk drive has an ejecting mechanism for ejecting a disk inserted into the magnetic disk drive. The ejecting mechanism has an eject button, a touching member, and a communicating member. The communicating member is coupled to the touching member at one end thereof and coupled to the eject button at the other end thereof. The touching member touches the disk which is inserted into the magnetic disk drive. The communicating member can communicate a force proportional to a force by which the eject button is pushed to a touching member. Therefore when the eject button is pushed gradually, the touching member ejects the disk gradually. The present invention is particularly applicable to a magnetic disk drive having a disk cartridge and a driving device. The disk cartridge has a magnetic disk and a magnetic head therein, but no current supply source to drive them and no controller to control the driving of them. The driving device has the current supply source and/or the controller. Accordingly, even when the disk cartridge is ejected by the ejecting mechanism from the driving device, the magnetic disk and the magnetic head do not collide with each other.
