Drive installation
This section describes the physical mounting of the
drive in the host cabinet and the logical installation as
a system member, which is called drive setup.
Disc drive mounting
Do not touch the connector pins or any PCB compo-
nents without observing static-discharge precautions.
Always handle the drive by the frame only.
The drive may be mounted in any orientation.
• Mount to host system chassis using four 6-32 UNC
screws. Three mounting holes are in each side and
four in the bottom of the drive. See Figure 4. The
maximum length that the screws should extend into
the side chassis mounting holes is 0.15 inch (3.81
mm), and 0.20 inch (5.1 mm) into bottom holes,
measured from the outer surface of the chassis. The
minimum thread engagement for all mounting screws
is .12 inch (3.05 mm). Tighten the screws evenly to a
maximum torque of 6 in-lb (.675 NM). Do not over
tighten or force when screw does not seem to screw
in easily (threads not correctly engaged).
