Step 4: Mounting

After setting the jumpers, mount the hard drive in your system. The drive can be mounted with any of its
six surfaces facing down. See below for mounting hole locations.
Mounting hole locations
You must ensure that the drive has sufficient air flow. Mount the drive in the system using four 6-32 UNC
screws. The maximum screw length is 4.0 mm for the side holes and 4.5 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 inch bay, you may need to purchase mounting brackets from your
computer manufacturer for the drive to be mounted securely.
