Hi everyone
I recently bought an Asus VivoPC X. It's a good little gaming pc, but the pc design means it is not supported at the front, with a gap between it and the table, just with rubber feet at the the back. This means sometimes when I press the power button, even the slightest bit of accidental pressure from my hand makes the pc tilt forward, even just resting it to try and not move the pc, as it is very lightweight. I would use it in vertical but I don't have room (it's on a cabinet.) The first time this happened I got a shock and quickly took my hand off, meaning it sprung back to its normal position, since then I'm always careful but it still sometimes springs back slightly when the button is pressed. The rubber feet seem to absorb any impact and the PC seems fine, but I'm worried that the 'springing back' may have shocked the HDD. The pc tilted about 15 degrees forward. Do you think the HDD will be ok? It seems securely mounted, but since the pc is really new I'm thinking I may return it if the design issue may affect the HDD over time. Thank you!
