Mounting Recommendations
•
Do not push on the striped area marked in the above image. Pressure on the striped area could cause contact between
the cover and movable parts inside the hard drive.
•
Do not put a steel plate over the ‘Red Box’ area marked in the above image. If using a steel plate on the hard drive
cover side, 2mm of space is required between the plate and the drive to ensure airflow.
•
The blue dotted lines in the above image represent the area in which shock drop insulation should be applied.
•
The blue frame shown below represents the casing used if the drive can not be secured with screws.
