          Application No. 07/803,465                                                  


               This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of               
          claims 1 through 24, 26 through 37 and 39 through 48, all of                
          the claims remaining in the application.                                    
               The invention is directed to a memory storage disk module              
          with a shield.  Representative independent claim 1 is                       
          reproduced as follows:                                                      


               1.   A memory storage disk module comprising:                          
               a memory storage disk unit including at least one memory               
          storage disk, and at least one head able to access the disk                 
          for writing and reading data to and from the disk;                          
               a control circuit board attached to the memory storage                 
          disk unit and including a control circuit for controlling the               
          disk and the head; and                                                      
               a cover covering at least said memory storage disk unit                
          and said control circuit board and having means for shielding               
          electromagnetic waves emitted from at least said control                    
          circuit board, said cover having a longitudinal axis, a main                
          panel portion extending generally along and around the                      
          longitudinal axis and having opposite ends, a front panel                   
          portion located on the main panel portion at one end thereof,               
          and a rear panel portion located on the main panel portion at               
          the other end thereof, the main panel portion being                         
          substantially solid and the front and rear panel portions                   
          having small apertures, respectively, allowing air to flow                  
          therethrough while shielding electromagnetic waves emitted                  
          from at least said control circuit board.                                   

               The examiner relies on the following references:
