A disk drive assembly includes a mounting cage, at least one disk drive, a first assembly structure and a second assembly structure. The mounting cage has a front side, a back side and at least one installation space. The back side is opposite to the front side, and the at least one installation space extends from the front side to the back side. The at least one disk drive is mounted in the at least one installation space. The first assembly structure and the second assembly structure are located adjacent to the front side and the back side of the mounting cage, respectively.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a casing and a moveable plate. The moveable plate disposed at the outside of the casing via the hinge. The moveable plate is selectively moved toward or away from the casing.

A surveillance system which provides a user with direct and remote access via cellular, wireless or hard-wired connection, to multiple high definition digital video streams from one device. The surveillance system includes a housing enclosure, a plurality of surveillance cameras, an internal storage device, a power-management computing device, a video-management computing device, a wireless communication router, and a power supply. The plurality of surveillance cameras is distributed and connected about a bottom surface of the housing enclosure. The internal storage device stores content from the surveillance cameras for a significantly long time, reducing the need for constant content download. The power-management computing device and the video-management computing device control the surveillance system. The wireless communication router allows for the user to remotely access content from the surveillance cameras and control any component within the surveillance system. The power supply provides the electrical energy necessary to power the aforementioned components.

Methods and structure for selectively powering a storage device over a data network. An exemplary system includes a power module configured to detect power from a host system via a network port. The system also includes an input/output controller configured to receive power derived from the network port of the power module, and in response, to identify a disk drive for a read/write operation based on information from the host system. With power derived from the network port, the power module is further configured to supply power to an expander that connects the disk drive to the input/output controller, and to supply power to the disk drive to perform the read/write operation.

A method and apparatus for securing electronic components in an electronics system enclosure are disclosed. An apparatus can include an electronics system enclosure having a compartment adapted to receive a removable electronic component. The apparatus also includes a cam having a portion extending into the compartment sufficient to hinder insertion of the removable electronic component in a default orientation. The portion of the cam includes first and second surfaces. The portion of the cam is configured to deflect sufficient to permit insertion of the removable electronic component into the compartment in response to a normal force. The deflection causes the cam to deflect to a modified orientation. The cam portion returns to the default orientation in the absence of the normal force. The second surface of the portion is configured and arranged to engage a cam lever that is rotatably mounted to the removable electronic component.

A base plate includes a bottom wall and a peripheral wall. The peripheral wall extends from the bottom wall to an axially upper side. The bottom wall includes a screw hole recessed from a peripheral edge of a lower end surface of the bottom wall to the axially upper side. The screw hole includes an inclined part and a column body. The inclined part is defined to have an inner diameter that decreases from a lower end toward the axially upper side. The column body extends from an upper end of the inclined part to the axially upper side and is defined with a threaded part. In a cross section including a center line that passes through a center of the column body in an axial direction, the inclined part is inclined at an inclination angle of 25 or more and 35 or less with respect to the center line.

An electronic device bracket including a first supporting member, a second supporting member, and at least one pivoting member is provided. The second supporting member is disposed beside the first supporting member. The at least one pivoting member is disposed at a side of the first and the second supporting members, and two ends of the at least one pivoting member are pivoted to the first and the second supporting members. Here the first supporting member is adapted to move between a first position and a second position relative to the second supporting member, so as to adjust a length of the electronic device bracket.

A heat sink can be used as part of a storage drive to perform multiple functions, both structural and thermodynamic. It can be used as a heat dissipating element and it can be used as the key mechanical mounting structure for storage drives, such as hard disk drives (HDD), and any circuit boards.
