ABSTRACT:
A storage apparatus such as a magnetic disk drive or an optical disk drive having dual I/O ports is disclosed. The storage apparatus has a connector mounting structure which reduces the number of parts and produces a cost savings. When used in a disk drive, the storage apparatus incudes a disk enclosure, a printed circuit board arranged on the bottom surface of the disk enclosure, and connectors mounted on the printed circuit board. One end of the printed circuit board is extended to project from the disk enclosure and the connectors are mounted on the surface of the projecting portion of the printed circuit board so that the connecting direction of the connectors orthogonally crosses the plane of the printed circuit board.
