Mounting - IBM Deskstar 14GXP Installation Manual

Step 4: Mounting
After setting the jumpers, mount the hard drive in your system. The DTTA drive can be mounted with any
of its six surfaces facing down (right side up, upside down, sideways, etc.). See below for mounting hole
locations. Be sure to treat the disk drive very carefully and gently.
You must ensure that the drive has sufficient air flow. Mount the drive in the system using the 4 6-32 UNC
screws (included). The maximum screw length is 3.5 mm for the side holes and 6 mm for the bottom
holes. Mount the drive securely enough to prevent it from excessive motion or vibration.
If you are mounting your drive in a 5" bay, you may need to purchase mounting brackets from your
computer manufacturer for the drive to be mounted securely.
