ABSTRACT:
A fixed disk storage unit is mounted in a protective outer case, and is supported at one end by a flexible cable which connects a connector of the protective outer case with the fixed disk storage unit in the protective outer case, and supported at the other end by using elastic shock absorbers against the elasticity of the flexible cable. A head/disk enclosure including a rotatable disk and a head actuator of the fixed disk storage unit therein, and an electronic card on which electronic circuits are mounted, are placed abreast on substantially the same plane in the protective outer case, and the head/disk enclosure is supported by the shock absorbers. This construction provides a shockproof and portable disk storage apparatus which is small-sized and whose manufacturing process is simple.
