AFAIK its just there for EM shielding purposes on the L100/110 and also for 
heat transfer to the magnesium case on the L50/70 ... as long as the drive 
itself was shielded properly I don't see why you'd need it there. I also 
don't see how it'd make a difference though given it's only a fraction of a 
millimeter thick ...
