System and method for accommodating multiple types of devices in a half-height bay
A system, information handling system and method are disclosed for accommodating multiple devices in a single bay. A bracket comprises a pair of sidewalls adapted for slidable insertion in slots in a bay. An upper portion of the bracket comprises inner walls formed with slots and a lower portion formed with flanges. A tray formed with rails on exterior surfaces may be inserted in the slots in the inner walls of the bracket. A first SFF device or devices may be positioned in the tray and a second SFF device may be positioned in the flanges to install multiple SFF devices in the bay.
DISK DEVICE
According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a recording medium of a disk form, a magnetic head, a housing, and a first protective member made of a resin. The recording medium includes a recording layer. The magnetic head is configured to read/write information from/to the recording medium. The housing includes a base provided with an inner chamber in which the recording medium and the magnetic head are accommodated, a cover that covers the inner chamber, and a welded part at which the base and the cover are welded to each other. The first protective member is located outside the housing, to cover at least part of the welded part.
Assembly module and expansion equipment
An assembly module is applicable to a casing of an expansion equipment. The assembly module includes a transmission component and an operating member. The transmission component is disposed in the casing. The transmission component includes a rotary member, a connecting member, and a buckle member. The rotary member is pivotally connected to the casing. The connecting member is connected between the rotary member and the buckle member. A part of the buckle member is exposed from a buckle hole of the casing. The operating member is disposed on the casing, and is connected to the transmission component. The operating member is configured to drive the transmission component, so that a part of the buckle member is movably disposed in the buckle hole of the casing.
Hard disk drive non-uniform disk shroud clearance
A hard disk drive enclosure base includes a non-uniform disk shroud surface extending from a top to a floor, the shroud surface including a first portion having a first radius and clearance along the circumference of the shroud surface and a second portion having a lesser second radius and clearance. The second portion of the shroud surface may be positioned at multiple locations where the drive form factor is especially constraining and in view of the need for a sufficient seal land surface for applying a gasket seal around the perimeter of the inner cavity of the base part. Widening the disk shroud clearance where possible can reduce the shear stress exerted at the disk edges thereby reducing the windage drag and associated disk spindle motor power consumption, especially in the context of helium-filled drives in which disk flutter is less of an issue.
DISK DEVICE WITH SENSOR MOUNTED THEREON
A disk device includes a magnetic disk, a magnetic head configured to read information from and write information to the magnetic disk, a housing having a mounting space in which the magnetic disk and the magnetic head are mounted, a substrate, and a sensor. The housing includes a wall and a hole extending therethrough to the mounting space. The substrate is attached to an outer side of the wall and sealing the hole. The sensor is mounted on the substrate.
DISK DEVICE WITH RAMPS
A disk device includes magnetic disks, ramps, suspensions, and magnetic disks. The magnetic disks are arranged above a housing bottom and configured to be rotated around a first rotation axis. The ramps are arranged above the housing bottom. The suspensions are configured to be rotated around a second rotation axis parallel to the first rotation axis, The magnetic heads are mounted on the suspensions, respectively. Each of the suspensions is configured to be rotated around the second rotation axis from a first position above or below one of the magnetic disks to a second position on one of the ramps. The plurality of ramps includes a first ramp and a second ramp that is above the first ramp. An inner end of the second ramp is closer to the first rotation axis than is an inner end of the first ramp.
Enclosure for coupling storage device to a computer
A mechanical enclosure provides a mechanism for coupling a storage device to a computer system. The mechanical enclosure can be removably coupled to the computer system and can allow for coupling of the storage device to the computer system without using specialty cables and connectors. The mechanical enclosure can allow the storage device to be coupled to computer system without significantly degrading the speed at which the data stored within the storage device is downloaded onto the computer. The storage device can be inserted into the mechanical enclosure which couples the storage device to the mechanical enclosure. The mechanical enclosure can be inserted into the computer system which similarly couples the computer system to the mechanical enclosure to effectively couple the storage device and the computer system. Once the storage device is effectively coupled to the computer system, the data stored within the storage device can be downloaded onto the computer without the need for specialty cables and connectors.
DISK DRIVE SUSPENSION, ADJUSTMENT METHOD OF VIBRATION CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SAME, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF THE SAME
A disk drive suspension according to an embodiment comprises a load beam comprising a dimple, and a flexure overlaid on the load beam. The load beam and the flexure are fixed by a first fixing portion and a second fixing portion closer to a distal end of the load beam than the first fixing portion. The flexure comprises a tongue opposed to the dimple, and an outrigger connected to the tongue. The outrigger is bent in a thickness direction of the load beam at a bent portion located between the dimple and the first fixing portion in a length direction of the load beam.

ON-VEHICLE DEVICE
An on-vehicle device includes a display device, a body device, and a support plate. The body device is installed on a back surface of the display device. The support plate includes a fixation part with a plate shape that is fixed on a top surface of the body device and a support part with a plate shape that is continuous with the fixation part and is formed so as to be bent, and supports a back surface of the display device by a plate spring part that is formed on the support part.
