1. A spindle motor comprising: a shaft 2 having one end 2a fixed to a bracket 1; and a hub 4 having a boss portion 3 rotatably supported by the shaft 2. A second hydrodynamic thrust bearing portion 17 for applying a first pressing force F 1 to the hub 4 inward in the axial direction is provided on the other end portion 2b side of the hub 2, and the hub 4 is also provided.
The second pressing force F 2 in the direction opposite to the first pressing force F 1 is applied to the hub 4 between the bracket corresponding end surface 13 of the boss portion 3 and the boss corresponding surface 14 of the bracket 1 facing the boss portion 3. A spindle motor characterized in that a second dynamic fluid thrust bearing portion (18) to be provided is provided.
