A hard drive includes a base deck and process cover that define a cavity for housing data storage components. The hard drive further includes a final cover that is placed over the process cover and is coupled to the base deck. The final cover and process cover are directly coupled to each other.

According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a housing, a plurality of magnetic recording media disposed in the housing in a multi-layered manner with intervals therebetween and a plurality of spacer rings each disposed between each adjacent pair of the magnetic recording media. At least one of an uppermost magnetic recording medium and a lowermost magnetic recording medium includes a substrate having a rigidity higher than that of substrates of the other magnetic recording media, and spacer rings brought into contact with the magnetic recording media with the substrate having the higher rigidity have a thermal expansion coefficient different from a thermal expansion coefficient of the other spacer rings.

A computing device caddy for housing a computing device is provided. The caddy includes a first caddy component. The first caddy component includes a first end wall including a first plurality of fins coupled to an outer surface of the first end wall. The first plurality of fins are configured relative to each other to create eddies within a flow. The caddy also includes a second caddy component. The second caddy component includes a second end wall. The second end wall is opposite the first end wall. The second caddy component is coupled to the first caddy component, thereby defining a cavity for housing the computing device.

Interventional procedures on the carotid arteries are performed through a transcervical access while retrograde blood flow is established from the internal carotid artery to a venous or external location. A system for use in accessing and treating a carotid artery includes an arterial access device, a shunt fluidly connected to the arterial access device, and a flow control assembly coupled to the shunt and adapted to regulate blood flow through the shunt between at least a first blood flow state and at least a second blood flow state. The flow control assembly includes one or more components that interact with the blood flow through the shunt.

Disclosed herein are printed circuit boards (PCBs) with patterned ground structure filters and data storage devices comprising such PCBs. Each PCB comprises a resonator having an L-shape or a zig-zag shape in a plane of the printed circuit board and at least one signal trace. The resonator has a first dimension and a second dimension in the plane of the printed circuit board. A portion of the at least one signal trace is situated over the resonator and is separated by a distance from the resonator by a dielectric material. In some embodiments, at least part of the portion of the at least one signal trace extends in a same direction as the first dimension (in the case of an L-shaped resonator) or tracks the zig-zag shape of the resonator (in the case of a zig-zag-shaped resonator).

A disk drive includes a metal base that has a rectangular bottom wall and side walls formed on each side of the rectangular bottom wall, the side walls including a first side wall on a shorter side, a metal cover that is fixed to the metal base with a plurality of metal screws, including two screws disposed at opposite ends of the side wall, a gap being formed between an upper end of the first side wall and the metal cover, a magnetic disk disposed on the metal base, at a position offset from a center of the metal base in a longitudinal direction towards the first side wall, and a head. The first side wall and the metal cover are electrically connected at an intermediate position of the first side wall between said opposite ends of the first side wall.

According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a recording medium, a first magnetic head, a first wiring member, a flexible printed circuit board, and a wire. The first wiring member is electrically connected to the first magnetic head. The flexible printed circuit board includes a surface, a first fixed part fixed to a first component, and a second fixed part fixed to a second component, and is electrically connected to the first magnetic head through the first wiring member. The wire on the flexible printed circuit board extends along the surface such that the wire extends between the first fixed part and the second fixed part in a direction intersecting at an angle of larger than 45 degrees and not larger than 90 degrees with an extending direction of a virtual shortest line that connects the first fixed part to the second fixed part along the surface.

Described herein is a system that includes a hard disk drive. The hard disk drive includes a base and a cover welded to the base by a weld bead. The base and the cover form a hermetically sealed housing. The system further includes a shield, coupled to an exterior of the hermetically sealed housing over the weld bead. The shield also is spaced-apart from the weld bead.

According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a disk-shaped recording medium, a head which processes data on the recording medium, and a housing accommodating the recording medium and the head. The housing includes a base with a side wall, and a cover having a welded portion welded to the side wall by laser welding. The welded portion includes a first welded portion welded to a first region of the side wall and having weld beads with a first shape, and a second welded portion welded to a second region of the side wall and having welded beads with a second shape different from the first shape.

Described herein is a hard disk drive that includes a base and a cover. The base includes a closed end, sidewalls, an open end, and one or more corner portions. The sidewalls extend from the closed end, and the open end is defined by the sidewalls. The closed end, sidewalls, and open end define an interior cavity of the hard disk drive. Each corner portion is proximate a respective intersection of the sidewalls and positioned exteriorly of the interior cavity. The cover is welded to the sidewalls over the open end by a weld bead such that the weld bead is positioned between the interior cavity and the corner portions. The weld bead hermetically seals the cover to the base. Furthermore, at least one of the corner portions is at least substantially flush with the cover.
