A hard disk drive which contains a connector that is mounted to a printed circuit board and fixed in place by features in the base plate and cover of the disk drive housing. The base plate and cover each have a pair of arms that have steps located at an inner portion of the arms. The connector has a pair of ears that correspond in shape to the arms of the plates. The ears and arms cooperate to prevent the connector from moving away from the housing of the drive unit. Additionally, the connector housing is located between the outer portion of the arms in a manner to prevent lateral movement of the connector relative to the circuit board. The base plate and cover also have inclined steps which extend along the width of the drive unit and cooperate with the connector to prevent z-axis movement of the same.
