Hey so another question I feel like a kindergartener asking. I got an Orico DDW35 enclosure. It comes with a small piece of foam with a sticker back which is not mentioned in the manual booklet. After inserting the SATA pins there's a small gap between the drive and the enclosure casing which seems precisely sizes to this piece of foam. Does this just go like… here? Between the two little plastic nubs? Or is it supposed to go on top of the drive to prevent vibration or something.
