Years ago I remember that hard disks had to be positioned horizontally, printed board facing down. The documentation said so. If you wanted to place them vertically, the documentation also specified which face had to look down, but warned that the wear would be worse.
So I always put them horizontally, without thinking.
But I'm about to place one vertically, and I don't see any mention of this in the documentation. Have things changed, or have I missed something in the docs?
I'm using seagate:
Model Family: Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 (AF) Device Model: ST500DM002-1BD142
Hello:
HP Proliant microserver has slots for hard disk in vertical position. Therefore I think either horizontal or vertical position is OK.
We use a few chassis where the disks are mounted vertical. These are used in vehicles on roads of varying quality, meaning they have been exposed to various influences all the time. So far we have not had a problem. -- Yours sincerely, Roger Oberholtzer Ramböll RST / Systems Office: Int +46 10-615 60 20 Mobile: Int +46 70-815 1696 roger.oberholtzer@ramboll.se ________________________________________ Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
