Handling precautions
Set the drive down gently to prevent damage from impact or vibration.
Handle the drive carefully by the edges. Do not touch the exposed printed circuit board
or any electronic components.
Do not press on the top or bottom of the drive.
Before handling the drive, discharge any static electricity from yourself and your
clothing. With one hand touch an unpainted metal surface, then touch the ESD bag with
the other hand. Remain in contact with the chassis and the bag for a minimum of two
seconds.
Vibration, shock and static electricity to the drive will damage the precision parts. In
particular, prevent vibration or shock generated by dropping, knocking over or hitting
the drive. Also, avoid touching the electrical components directly, which can discharge
electrostatic energy and damage the drive.

Mounting Recommendations
The mounting hole locations and size of the drive are shown in the following illustration:

Hitachi Global Storage Technologies
The drive will operate in all axes (six directions) and will stay within the specified error
rates when tilted ±5 degrees from these positions. Performance and error rate will stay
within specification limits if the drive is operated in the other permissible orientations from
which it was formatted. Thus a drive formatted in a horizontal orientation will be able to
run vertically and vice versa.
The recommended mounting screw torque is 0.3±0.05 Nm.
The recommended mounting screw depth is 3.0±0.3 mm for bottom and 3.5±0.5 mm for
horizontal mounting.
The user is responsible for using the appropriate screws or equivalent mounting hardware
to mount the drive securely enough to prevent excessive motion or vibration of the drive at
seek operation or spindle rotation.
Interface connector
The figure below shows the physical pin location
All pins are in a single row, with a 127 mm (0.050”) pitch.
The comments on the mating sequence in Table in the section 7.3 apply to the case of
back-plane blind-mate connector only. In this case, the mating sequences are:(1) the
ground pins P4 and P12;(2) the pre-charge power pins and the other ground pins; and
(3) the signal pins and the rest of the power pins.

There are three power pins for each voltage. One pin from each voltage is used for
pre-charge in the backplane blind-mate situation.
This device uses only 5.0V. All V5 pins must be terminated.
