Abstract
A flexible printed circuit board of a storage device includes a first insulating layer, a first conductive layer on a first surface of the first insulating layer, and a second conductive layer on a second surface of the first insulating layer. The second surface is opposite the first surface. The first conductive layer is provided with a land. The second conductive layer covers the land via the first insulating layer in a first direction in which the first surface faces. An electronic component of the storage device includes a pin joined to the land.
