See Figure 4 for drive mounting dimensions. Follow these important mounting precautions when mounting the drive: • Allow a minimum clearance of 0.030 in (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 in (3.81mm) into the bottom or side mounting holes. • Do not overtighten the mounting screws (maximum torque: 6 in per lb). 26 Pipeline HD SATA Product Manual, Rev.
