Abstract

PURPOSE:To equip the title device with impact resistance and to make it portable by forming external cases from vibration proofing material and providing a vibration proofing material between a disk drive main body and an internal chassis. CONSTITUTION:External cases 1 and 2 to house a hard disk drive main body 3 are formed from olefin thermoplastic elastomer, etc., strong against vibration or impact. The hard disk drive main body 3 is fixed to an internal chassis 4 via a vibration proofing material 9. This vibration proofing material 9 consists of a supporting member formed from butyl rubber excellent in vibration resis tance and impact resistance and a sheet metal part. The vibration proofing material 9 is fixed to the internal chassis 4 fitted to the external case 2 through an internal chassis supporting tool. The hard disk 3 is fixed on it. Thus, vibra tion given to the cases 1 and 2 is absorbed by the case 1 and 2, next, weakened by a supporting member and absorbed by the vibration proofing material 9.
