ABSTRACT:
A disc drive suspension has a base portion including a baseplate and a plate member, a load beam, a pair of hinge members, and a flexure with conductors. The flexure passes through a gap between the hinge members and ranges over the load beam and the base portion. A thin-walled portion is formed by partial etching on that region of a front end portion of the plate member of the base portion which faces the flexure. A thin-walled portion is also formed by partial etching on that region of a rear end portion of the load beam which faces the flexure.
