ABSTRACT:
The invention discloses an apparatus and method for passive damping of slider modes in a storage device. An exemplary apparatus comprises a cradle for supporting a slider and comprising two side members and a center member, where each of the side members are disposed at opposite ends of the center member, and a viscoelastic layer lining two side members and the center member of the cradle.
