Abstract

A disk file comprises a head disk enclosure 1 connected to a support frame by a plurality of isolation mounts. Each isolation mount comprises a constrained layer flexure 23 which is rigidly attached at both ends to a bracket 25 of the support frame. Located in an aperture in the constrained layer flexure is a resilient grommet 24. This grommet supports a bolt 27 which passes through the grommet and into the head-disk enclosure casting.
