Abstract
A system for mounting a hard disk enclosure (HDE), includes a casing pivotably mounted to minimize at least one of settle-out dynamics, external rotational vibration, and emitted vibration, the casing allowing the HDE to rotate substantially freely, wherein the center of gravity of the HDE is substantially the same as a pivot point of the casing. Further, a computer chassis includes a housing, at least one disk drive assembly for being housed by the housing, and a plurality of theta-mounts integrally built within the housing.
