Zusammenfassung:The drive includes a data disc, a motor connected to the disc for rotating the latter, a transducer for reading the data from or writing the data to the disc, a carrier for supporting the transducer near a surface of the disc, an actuator connected to the carrier for moving the carrier and supported transducer across surface of the disc. The drive also incorporates an enclosure surrounding the motor and actuator and fitted with a breather opening, a filter housing located within the enclosure and having a passage, which has an inlet near to the breather opening and an outlet. A chemical filter is supported by the housing and located near the passage outlet for removing chemical contaminations from air entering the enclosure through the breather opening.
