ABSTRACT:
A header connector device for making an electrical connection between a head stack assembly (HSA) mounted on the base frame of a hard disk drive and the main circuit board comprises a connector for connecting the head stack assembly with the main circuit board, a connector attachment opening formed in the base frame for attaching the connector, a flange provided on the periphery of the connector attachment opening so as to contact the side surfaces of the connector, a gasket mounted on the upper surface of the flange, and at least a pair of resilient hooks provided downwardly on the bottom of the connector near the periphery thereof to oppose each other, whereby the connector is inserted into the connector attachment opening so as to interpose the gasket between the connector and the flange and to cause the resilient hooks to be held by the bottom of the flange.
