Mounting Restrictions

Important: 

Your system must be turned off and unplugged before installing your hard drive.

5.2.1

Orientation

You can mount the hard drive in the X, Y, or Z axis, depending upon the physical design of your 
system. For best results, mount the drive with all four screws grounded to the chassis. If all four screws 
are not used, see "Grounding" on page 42.

5.2.2

Screw Size Limitations

The hard drive is mounted to the chassis using four M 3.0 screws. Recommended screw torque is 5-6 
lbf-in. 

CAUTION: Screws that are too long damage circuit board components. Side mounted screws 
should engage 3.0 mm MAX.  Bottom mounted screws should engage 2.5 mm MAX.
