This may be a dumb question, but which side is the up side on a hard
drive.  I have a Seagate drive and one side of it has a metal casing
on it and the other has a green circuit board showing.  I'm not sure
which way to install it.  I know it's bad for the hard drive to be 
installed up side down.

Thanks
