Abstract
Disclosed herein is a disk drive that has heads and a loading/unloading mechanism including a parking ramp. The parking ramp is so structured that it is likely to contact the outermost area of a disk, never contacting or hitting the loading/unloading area of the disk, when the disk drive receives an external shock. The outermost area of the disk remains unused to record data or park the heads.
