ABSTRACT:
A member securing electrical conductors coupled to a read/write head in a storage device over termination pads of an electrical flex circuit. Generally, the storage device includes an actuator having at least one actuator arm securing the read/write head, and the apparatus is coupled to the actuator arm. The apparatus may comprise a member having a first end and a second end, the first end being coupled to the arm and the second end positioning the conductors over conductive pads of the flex circuit, with the second end including a window securing the conductors in fixed positions over the conductive pads of the flex circuit. In another arrangement, the second end comprises a solderless coupling assembly electrically connected to the conductors, wherein the conductive pads of the flex circuit are arranged to electrically couple to the solderless coupling assembly.
