正確な位置決めが不可能となるという問題があった。Problems to be solved: When the magnetic head 1 moves rapidly due to a command such as a call, the swing arm positioning of a conventional magnetic disk device is difficult.
Mechanical resonance becomes a problem, and if the resonance frequency is too low or the imaging level is too high, the servo system will cause joint imaging.1.
There was a problem that accurate positioning was impossible.
