Mounting apparatus for data storage device

摘要

A mounting apparatus for a data storage device includes a chassis (10), a data storage device (70) with a groove defined in a sidewall thereof, a supporting bracket (20) fixed to the chassis (10), an elastic tab (25) mounted to the supporting bracket (20), a connecting rod (30) movably attached to the supporting bracket (20) and a poke rod (40) pivotably mounted to the supporting bracket (20) and movably connected with the connecting rod (40). The supporting bracket (20) has a sidewall (22) with a rectangular hole (226) defined therein. The elastic tab (25) has a protrusion (256) extending through the rectangular hole (226) for engaging in the groove. The connecting rod (30) has a post (332) for urging the elastic tab (25) to move outwards. That the connecting rod (30) is pushed urges the data storage device (70) to retreat from the supporting bracket (20).
