3.5.1Orientation

The mounting holes on the DiamondMax 17 80-160GB AT hard disk drives allow the drive to be mounted in any orientation. Figure 3-4 and Figure 3-6 show the location of the three mounting holes on each side of the drive. The drive can also be mounted using the four mounting hole locations on the PCB side of the drive.

Note: It is highly recommended that the drive is hard mounted on to the chassis of the system being used for general operation, as well as for test purposes. Failure to hard mount the drive can result in erroneous errors during testing.

Note: Drives can be mounted in any orientation. Normal position is with the PCB facing down.

All dimensions are in millimeters. For mounting, #6-32 UNC screws are recommended.
