ABSTRACT:
A data storage device includes an enclosure case and a circuit board attached to an outer surface of the enclosure case, the enclosure case containing a spindle motor and a circular movement actuator, the spindle motor being for rotating a storage medium, the circular movement actuator being for controlling a position of a read and write head for reading data from the storage medium and for writing data to the storage medium, the circuit board having an interface cable connector at one end portion thereof for establishing a connection to a host. The circuit board is located between the interface cable connector and the spindle motor, and is attached to the enclosure case by use of a plurality of fastening members. An acceleration sensor is attached to the circuit board next to the fastening members for detecting vibrations applied to the data storage device in a rotation direction in a plane along the circuit board.
