4.4. Mounting the Gold Whistle
The Gold Whistle was designed for mounting on a printed circuit board (PCB) via 1.27 mm pitch
0.41 mm square pins and 2 mm pitch 0.51 mm square pins. When integrating the Gold Whistle
into a device, be sure to leave about 1 cm (0.4") outward from the heat-sink to enable free air
convection around the drive. We recommend that the Gold Whistle be soldered directly to the
board. Alternatively, though this is not recommended, the Gold Whistle can be attached to
socket connectors mounted on the PCB. If the PCB is enclosed in a metal chassis, we
recommend that the Gold Whistle be screw-mounted to it as well to help with heat dissipation.
The Gold Whistle has screw-mount holes on each corner of the heat-sink for this purpose – see
below.
