Quick-release mechanism for hard disk drive |
摘要 |
A mounting tray for a hard disk drive has a base, a front wall, and a pair of side walls. A pair of latching mechanisms are located in each side wall. Each latching mechanism has a slide and a spring-like fastener. The fasteners have an unlocked position where they are biased away from the tray, and a locked position where the slides capture them against the side walls. A tapered pin extends inward from each fastener. With the latching mechanisms in their unlocked positions, a drive is placed in the tray. The slides are then moved to the locked positions such that the pins on the fasteners engage holes in the drive. The pins secure the drive from movement relative to the tray to facilitate hot plugging of the drive into a computer system.
