ABSTRACT:
A disc drive assembly having a pair of disc packs supported for rotation by independent spindle motors and a single actuator having dual arrays of actuator arms supporting read/write heads for each disc pack. The actuator has dual opposing actuator coils which interact with dual opposing magnet assemblies so that a controlled voltage to the actuator coils creates a rotating force having translational vectors that act radially on the actuator and are opposingly disposed to stabilize the actuator.
