The present invention provides a hub/clamp assembly for holding a disk hub
in position when the hub is spin in a high speed. The hub/clamp assembly
comprises of: a removable disk hub having a shaft for stacking a
plurality of storage disks, a flange portion integrally attached to one
end of the shaft, and an extension shaft integrally attached to the
flange portion opposite to the shaft; wherein the axes of the shaft, the
flange portion, and the extension shaft are in alignment; and a hub clamp
housing having a housing with side walls and top and bottom surfaces, and
a clamp means disposed within the cavity formed within the housing. The
present invention also provides a multi-disk servowriter for writing
servo information onto multiple storage disks at the same time. The
multi-disk servowriter comprises a base with an air spindle shaft
providing the spinning power for the servowriter; a removable disk hub
having a shaft for stacking a plurality of storage disks, a flange
portion integrally attached to one end of the shaft, and an extension
shaft integrally attached to the flange portion opposite to the shaft;
wherein the axes of the shaft, the flange portion, and the extension
shaft are in alignment; and a hub clamp housing having a housing with
