Abstract
In a computer apparatus including an enclosure and a direct access storage device mounted within the enclosure, a mounting apparatus for the direct access storage device including: a plurality of a relatively rigid shock isolators and at least one stress sensor mounted in series with are of said shock isolators and disposed between the enclosure and the direct access storage device. The enclosure may include a user frame and the mounting apparatus may be disposed between the direct access storage device and the frame. There may be one stress sensor for each of the shock isolators. The shock isolators may be coupled to the direct access storage device. Each stress sensor may include a piezoelectric element. Preferably the shock isolators are rigid enough so that the resonant frequency of said mounting apparatus is at least 800 Hz, but can be 800 Hz or higher.
