Spindle
The disk spindle is fixed to the base of the DE from the top side.
The base is sealed to prevent the intrusion of air through the bearings. At the top of
the spindle is a hub, to which recording media are fitted. A DC motor is set con-
centrically with the spindle to drive the disks. The spindle is grounded to the DE
through an anti-static brush.
