Hello John,

Saturday, May 6, 2017

I  have  several  PC's  with hard drives in different orientations and
over  the  years  I  have seen no issue  with reliability or longevity
between them. This link covers most aspects:

> A question for the computer gurus.   Are hard drives able to function in any orientation, or
> do they need to be laying flat / horizontal?  I have a desktop PC that I'd like to put on its
> side so it doesn't need so much space, but I was reluctant to do so just in case it would
> cause damage to the drives.
