If forced air is necessary, possible air-flow patterns are shown in Figure 10. The air-flow patterns are created 
by fans either forcing or drawing air as shown in the illustrations. Conduction, convection, or other forced air-
flow patterns are acceptable as long as the temperature measurement guidelines of Section 6.4.1 are met.

Drive mounting
Mount the drive using the bottom or side mounting holes. If you mount the drive using the bottom holes, ensure 
that you do not physically distort the drive by attempting to mount it on a stiff, non-flat surface.
The allowable mounting surface stiffness is 80 lb/in (14.0 N/mm). The following equation and paragraph define 
the allowable mounting surface stiffness:
where K is the mounting surface stiffness (units in lb/in or N/mm) and X is the out-of-plane surface distortion 
(units in inches or millimeters). The out-of-plane distortion (X) is determined by defining a plane with three of 
the four mounting points fixed and evaluating the out-of-plane deflection of the fourth mounting point when a 
known force (F) is applied to the fourth point.
Note.
Before mounting the drive in any kind of 3.5-inch to 5.25-inch adapter frame, verify with Seagate 
Technology that the drive can meet the shock and vibration specifications given herein while 
mounted in such an adapter frame. Adapter frames that are available may not have a mechanical 
structure capable of mounting the drive so that it can meet the shock and vibration specifications 
listed in this manual.
