Mounting structure of I/O connector in magnetic disk drive

摘要

A mounting structure for an I/O (input/output) connector in a magnetic disk drive comprises a frame of the magnetic disk drive including a side wall, an I/O connector mounted on a printed board, and an engagement piece formed within the side wall that obliquely extends downwards and toward the inside of the side wall. The engagement piece is pushed towards the sidewall by side faces of the I/O connector and the printed board facing the inner face of the side wall when the printed board, on which the I/O connector is mounted, is inserted into the frame of the magnetic disk drive. A tip end of the engagement piece contacts a top face of the I/O connector when the printed board, on which the mounted board is mounted, is completely mounted onto the frame of the magnetic disk drive.
