ASSEMBLING THE 3.5” SATA HDD ENCLOSURE
To begin using the 3.5” SATA HDD Enclosure, simply install a 3.5” SATA hard
drive into the Enclosure by completing the following assembly steps:
CAUTION
(Fasten the Handle on the Hard Drive)
1. Place the hard drive with the metal cover side facing up and ensure that
the interface connectors are oriented toward your left side.
Connectors
2. Position the handle to the hard drive end, the end without interface
connectors, and align it with the screw hole openings.
Connectors

3. Locate the auto-limiting segmented screws included inside the package.
Insert the first screw and fasten the handle onto the hard drive. Tighten the
first screw securely to ensure that proper alignment is maintained. Repeat
the same for the remaining 3 screws.
4. After the auto-limiting segmented screws are tightened, test slides the
handle to make sure that the handle glide smoothly.
The SmartGuider Package includes one hard drive handle and four
auto-limiting segmented screws. The auto-limiting segmented screws are
designed to prevent the hard drive and/or the handle from damages due to
over-tightening. Furthermore, the SmartGuider design makes the handle
slide easily without any tightness.
