Abstract
In an example, a vibration-damping mount comprises a bolt including a threaded shaft and a bolt head fixed to the threaded shaft, and a vibration-damping base. The vibration-damping base includes a head segment that envelops the bolt head and a neck segment adjacent to the head segment and opposite to the threaded shaft. The vibration-damping base further includes a rear segment adjacent to the neck segment and opposite to the head segment. The head segment, the neck segment and the rear segment combine to form a notch configured to mate with a hole in a mounting board, such as a printed circuit board. The vibration-damping mount may be suitable to mount a mass data storage device such as a hard disk drive to a printed circuit board in a chassis system and simultaneously isolate the mass data storage device from vibrations in the chassis system.
