Step 4: Mounting the drive
Ÿ
After setting the jumpers, mount the hard drive in your system. The Ultrastar drive can be mounted
with any of its six surfaces facing down. See the diagrams below for mounting hole locations.
Mounting hole locations
You must ensure that the drive has sufficient air flow. Mount the drive in the system using four
6-32 UNC
screws. The maximum screw length is 3.5 mm for the side holes and 6 mm for the bottom holes. Mount
the drive securely enough to prevent excessive motion or vibration.
If you are mounting your drive in a 5.25 inch bay, you may need to purchase mounting brackets from
your computer manufacturer to mount the drive securely.
