I am using two 2TB internal HDDs as external storage drives which I connect to my laptop via USB to SATA adapters, one is the main storage drive, and the other is the backup for the storage drive, and is not used as often, only occasionally to update the contents.
Here's my question. I feel uncomfortable placing the bare hard drives on my wooden desk by themselves, and they seem a little unlevel and wobble a bit on the desk, so for now I have them set atop the adapter boxes, but what I would like to do is potentially get some little rubber adhesive feet to place on the bottom corners of the drives, not touching any part of the PCB of course.
Would this be a bad idea, could it cause issues such as static, or is it perfectly safe, so long as the little rubber pad thingies don't touch the PCB?
Thank you for your time, I appreciate it. :3
