A data storage device including a housing including an overmold element with features for sealing the interior from ambient particulates, providing mechanical support with respect to a host, absorbing mechanical shock, and retaining a recirculation filter. The device includes a flexible electronic interconnect connectable to the host. The host includes a cavity. A resilient support extends through a movement margin between the housing and the cavity, absorbing mechanical shock. Bumpers are disposed on the housing and serve to cushion a strike when the device travels through the swing space. The resilient support extends from the corner region and is molded through an opening in the device. A sealing arrangement includes a sealing lip and bias cones and seals the interior of the device from outside particulates. A recirculation filter retention feature retains a recirculation filter. Latching features prevent two opposite portions of the housing from separating.
