My (early) st238 Product Manual is worded a bit clumsily, but indicates
that either "horizontal" or "on side" is acceptable.  If on its side,
you must make sure the spindle motor is to the left or the right :-)

Don't tilt by more than +/-5 degrees front to back, and "should be
formatted in the same orientation as it will be mounted in the host
system."
