Handling precautions
•Do not seal the breather hole! Sealing the breather hole may result in loss of data.

•Always handle the drive with care to prevent damage from shock, vibration, or electrostatic discharge (ESD).
•Handle the drive carefully by the edges. Do not touch any exposed printed circuit board.
•Do not write on the label or remove it. Do not apply additional labels.

Mounting Recommendations
There are no screw holes or guide rails in the Microdrive 3K8 hard disk drive. Hitachi recommends you secure the drive by placing it in a frame with snubbers as shown in the diagram below. Hitachi GST will assist customers with mounting design.
•To permit airflow, a 0.5mm gap on top and bottom should exist after device holding drive is assembled.
•Give FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) cable enough length to avoid excessive tension under shock condition.
•Snubbers are available from 3rd parties such as EAR (www.earsc.com). Material should not produce any outgassing such as siloxane found in organic silicone oil.
•Do not cover breather hole
