Mounting an internal Scorpion 40
You can install your Seagate internal DDS drive
horizontally or vertically (on its side). Figure 8 shows a
3.5-inch drive being installed in a typical system using
side mounting screws.
Mounting the drive in a 3.5-inch drive bay
Mount the drive in a 3.5-inch drive bay and secure it
using two M3.0 metric screws on each side of the
drive. Do not use non-metric screws or screws longer
than 4 mm or you may damage the drive. As shown in
Figure 9 below, the 3.5-inch drive has four screw holes
on the bottom and five on each side.
