Rubber cassing

[Guest]

i bought a the same hard drive from a friend but it does not have a rubber. does it matter about the rubber cassing around the drive or will it still work with out it? thank you

I've only ever seen a rubber slip on one hard drive in my life. The drive was like 10 years old. It has nothing to do with how the drive operates. It only attempts to reduce vibration and noise.
