ABSTRACT:
An arm for mounting a head in a disk drive, the arm comprising an end region adapted to carry the head on a mounting surface and a pair of side regions angularly disposed with respect to the mounting surface to straddle the head. That is, the side regions and mounting surface form a channel within which the head is disposed. Thus, the profile (i.e., height) of the arm is reduced. This allows disks in a multiple disk drive to be spaced by a reduced amount.
