A vibration control device for controlling vibration of a disc drive supported in a compartment of a mass storage array. The device includes an ironing board moveably mounted within a housing and a lift mechanism operatively engaged with the ironing board that can automatically move the ironing board upwardly from a generally vertical storage position with a distal end positioned beneath the proximal end to a generally horizontal operating position. The microcontroller measures a motor speed utilizing a tachometer signal transmitted from the speed sensor.
