In article <329@parcvax.Xerox.COM>, bane@parcvax.Xerox.COM (Rene P.S. Bane)
drew the following picture describing a solution to a disk drive problem:
%
%	DDDDDDDDDDDDDD
%	DDDDDDDDDDDDDD	<- Quantum Q540 drive
%	DDDDDDDDDDDDDD
%	D            D
%	--------------	<- Shielding (clad PC board or metal plate works fine)
%Nylon->S            S
%stand- AAAAAAAAAAAAAA	<- Adaptek 4000 controller
%offs ->S            S
%	BBBBBBBBBBBBBB	<- BMS 100 interface board
%
For the shield to be effective, it needs to be electrically connected
somewhere.  Was it connected to the disk drive (thru mounting screws?)?
