Abstract
This disclosure describes using the existing hard disk drive final cover identification label to replace the separate approximately 1.47-inch warranty or super seal. The label is enlarged or repositioned to overlap the approximately 1-inch environmental seal. It retains its identification and traceability function while adding a protective layer function that helps shield the underlying seal from scratches, handling contact, contamination, and edge damage. The design reduces the number of separate label and seal components applied to the final cover.
