<p>A removable, EMI-shielding hard disk drive module (10) for a notebook computer (38) is pivotally insertable into the computer (38) through an opening in the computer's base plate (32). Connectors (28, 64) fixedly mounted on the module and computer (38), respectively, mate when the module (10) is fully inserted. A pin on the module (10) cooperates with a movable cam (54) on the computer to automatically lock the module (10) in position when it is-fully inserted, and to positively but smoothly disengage the connectors (28, 64) when the lock is released for removal of the module (10). To facilitate removal, the cam (54) may lightly hold the module (10), after the connectors (28, 64) are disengaged, in a position where the module (10) is easy to grasp and remove. <IMAGE></p> |
