An electronic module ejecting mechanism includes a frame, a door pivoted to the frame, a rod, a sliding sheet slidably disposed on the door, a swing sheet, and a button connected to the sliding sheet. An electronic module is inserted into an opening of the frame. The rod is slidably disposed in the frame and has groove and bending ends. The swing sheet is pivoted to the sliding sheet and has a latch end for inserting into the groove end when the sliding sheet slides to a lock position. When the latch end is inserted into the groove end and the swing sheet swings to an expanding position with opening of the door, the latch end pulls the groove end to make the bending end push the electronic module to partially protrude from the opening. When the door continues opening outwardly, the latch end is separate from the groove end.

A system includes a read/write controller removably coupled to a storage drive. Responsive to detection of a coupling between the read/write controller and the storage drive, the read/write controller retrieves key information from the storage drive, uses the key information to locate adaptives associated with the primary storage medium, and loads the adaptives into volatile memory to configure read/write settings for access to the primary storage medium.

To improve general versatility regarding a disk cartridge. A disk conveyor apparatus includes: a disk holder that holds at least a part of a disk cartridge in which disk-shaped recording media are accommodated inside a case body in a state where the disk-shaped recording media are accommodated, and is moved in at least a direction of a center axis of the disk-shaped recording media; a movement mechanism that causes the disk holder to move in the direction of the center axis of the disk-shaped recording media; and a feeder mechanism that feeds the disk-shaped recording media toward a disk drive apparatus from the case body, the disk holder being capable of holding different types of disk cartridges, a movement position of the disk holder being set by operating the movement mechanism in accordance with the type of the disk cartridge.
