Hard disk drive scrapper
Disclosed herein is an apparatus and/or device to scrape a hard disk drive (HDD) to completely and permanently erase, remove, and/or destroy digital and/or electronic data and/or information stored on and/or written to the HDD without using and/or necessitating the use of external induction. The apparatus includes a first part of a HDD scrapper mounted on an arm of the HDD and a second part of the HDD scrapper mounted on a scrapper head. The apparatus also includes a turner that simultaneously permits a turning operation of magnetic platters of the HDD and the HDD scrapper. The first part, the second part, the arm, the scrapper head, the turner, and the magnetic platters are included in an enclosure of the HDD.

Fixing bracket for the installion of computer expansion card
A fixing bracket for holding an expansion card in a computer without screws includes first and second fixing frames and an elastic member connected to the first and second fixing frames. The two fixing frames define a receiving space for the expansion card. The first fixing frame can be moved relative to the second fixing frame, or the second fixing frame can be moved relative to the first fixing frame, by applying an external force to deform the elastic member. When the external force is released, the elastic member restores and clamps the expansion card in place until disassembly by the same process.
Storage devices for external data acquisition
A system includes a system-on-a-chip integrated circuit and a preamplifier integrated circuit. The system-on-a-chip integrated circuit includes an interface configured to receive an analog sensor signal and a read/write channel configured to digitize the analog sensor signal. The preamplifier integrated circuit is communicatively coupled to the system-on-a-chip integrated circuit and is configured to amplify the analog sensor signal.

Divider with captive shock mounts for storage enclosure
Provided herein are systems and apparatus for capturing a shock mount in a storage enclosure divider. In one implementation, a divider assembly comprises a divider guide comprising a plurality of alignment stops configured to engage an alignment feature of a device carrier, a front top divider coupled to the divider guide, a rear top divider coupled to the divider guide, and a grommet assembly coupled to the divider guide and to the front top divider and to the rear top divider. The front and rear top dividers comprise pluralities of alignment stop apertures and grommet apertures formed therein with respective alignment stops extending therethrough. Each alignment stop aperture of the rear top divider has a respective alignment stop of the plurality of alignment stops extending therethrough. The grommet assembly comprises a pair of grommets, each extending through a respective grommet aperture.
