3.4 Drive mounting

You can mount the drive in any orientation using four screws in the side-mounting holes or four screws in the

bottom-mounting holes. See Figure 3 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precau-

tions when mounting the drive:

• Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 in

ches (0.76mm) around the entire perimeter of the drive for cooling.

• Use only 6-32 UNC mounting screws.

• The screws should be inserted no more than 0.150 inch (3.81mm) into the bottom or side mounting holes.

• Do not overtighten the mounting screws (maximum torque: 6 inch-lb).
