ABSTRACT:
A magnetic disk drive includes a braking mechanism for controlling a braking force to the arm to position the magnetic head over a magnetic disk. The braking force, which is normally not applied to the magnetic head arm, is applied to the head arm when the magnetic head leaves a region which is somewhat smaller than the data recording region.
