Yes it is a strange design with the glass.. but I think this was Apple's first hard drive they designed... I would like to use epoxy but again I am trying to limit the vapors from any type of glue as the vapor could adhear to the platters... almost like a fbi files episode looking for fingerprints... lol... they use the crazy glue vapors to detect fingerprints on things they cannot use dust on..

The glass glue has literally almost no vapors and is fast drying.. and it is tough... As I said on the other bad drive when I lined it on the side it automatically sucked into the areas underneath where the glue was missing...

I'm holding off for now...
