    Abstract: In certain embodiments, an apparatus includes a first piezoelectric (PZT) element poled in the same direction as a second PZT element. The first and second PZT elements are configured to be driven while simultaneously sensing motion. The apparatus further includes a circuit configured to add outputs of the first and second PZT elements, extract the sensed motion, and detect off-track motion from the extracted sensed motion.

    Abstract: A flow control plate (152) for a disk drive is disclosed. The flow control plate (152) includes both a diffuser section (156) and an air displacement section (168). The diffuser section (156) is contained within a pocket (160) having a plurality of spaced protuberances or ridges (164). The air displacement section (168) may be located upstream of the diffuser section (156) and includes a pair of flat primary surfaces (172) that are disposed in opposing and parallel relation. In one embodiment, the flow control plate (152) is an integral structure and is fabricated from a resinous material.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a movable member, and first and second actuators coupled to the movable member at positions offset from a first axis that passes through a centroid of the movable member. A controller independently controls the first and second actuators to exert a first force on the movable member in a direction generally parallel to the first axis, thereby controlling both linear and rotational orientation of the movable member. The apparatus can further include third and fourth actuators coupled to the movable member at positions offset from a second axis that passes through the centroid of the movable member, and the controller can independently controlling third and fourth actuators.
