Abstract
A portable terminal is provided. The terminal includes a hard disk, a housing having an opening formed thereon, and a motor protruding out of the hard disk while being received in the opening. Even when the space for receiving the hard disk is the same, the distance between the body of the hard disk and the inner peripheral surface of the housing of the terminal is sufficient to prevent external impact from directly acting on the hard disk. In addition, even if the distance between the body of the hard disk and the inner peripheral surface of the housing of the terminal remains the same, no extra space is unnecessarily occupied inside the housing because the motor of the hard disk is received in the opening. This has the merit of achieving compactness of the terminal.
