Orientation
The mounting holes on the Quickview 300 80/100/120/160/200/250/
300GB PATA hard disk drives allow the drive to be mounted in any
orientation. Figure 3-7 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.
Drives can be mounted in any orientation. Normal posi-
tion is with the PCB facing down.
All dimensions are in millimeters. For mounting, #6-32 UNC screws are
recommended.
