ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a magnetic disk in a discrete track medium and a patterned medium, which prevents the loss of the magnetically recorded data when a head of a magnetic disk device contacts the magnetic disk, and a manufacturing method thereof. A magnetic disk has a protrusion as a non-magnetic member formed on a disk surface to prevent a head from being in contact with a recording section. When the protrusion formed in a disk substrate collides against the head, the protrusion7does not collapse, and accordingly, the recording layer is not damaged. Alternatively, concave and convex portions are formed on the substrate surface to use the convex portion as the protrusion.
