A removable storage cartridge system may include a linear push-push mechanism comprising a carriage having a lock bar and a lock bar spring, and an enclosure having a mounting bracket having a lock guide. The lock guide is configured to interact with the lock bar and spring such that, in response to a first pushing force, reception of the carriage into the mounting bracket positions the carriage into a locked position within the enclosure and, in response to a second pushing force, the carriage is released from the locked position and ejected from the system.

A hard disk drive tray includes a tray body, a handle, and two elastic locking members. The tray body includes a bottom wall and two side walls. A first evading groove is defined in each side wall. The side wall includes a first clamping portion. The handle includes two handle operating portions and a beam portion. The handle operating portion is connected to the side wall. A second clamping portion is formed in the first limiting groove. Each elastic locking member includes a first side portion, a top portion, and a locking portion. A third clamping portion is formed on the first side portion. The locking portion is blocked by the second clamping portion, and the third clamping portion is blocked by the first clamping portion. When the elastic locking member is pushed toward the second clamping portion, the third clamping portion is separated from the first clamping portion.

An object of the preset invention is to prolong the life of an HDD by performing load/unload control without reducing usability. The present invention is an information processing apparatus including: a hard disk drive; a control unit configured to perform control so that a load state in the hard disk drive is kept for a predetermined time; and a derivation unit configured to derive the number of times of load/unload in the hard disk drive, and the information processing apparatus further includes a change unit configured to change the predetermined time during which the load state is kept based on the operation time of the information processing apparatus and the number of times of load/unload.

An opening and closing device of rotating cage type jukebox disc tray including a first disc tray carrying discs and an opening and closing mechanism of disc tray including a first linkage mechanism and a first driving device is provided. The first linkage mechanism includes a first linkage bar, a first sliding member and a second linkage bar. The second linkage bar is slidingly disposed on the first sliding member which is slidingly disposed on the first linkage bar. When an end portion of the second linkage bar is connected to a first ear portion on a lateral side of the first disc tray, the first driving device drives the first sliding member to slide on the first linkage bar, leading the second linkage bar to slide on the first sliding member and thereby leading the first disc tray to rotate around a first fixing post.

An optical disk drive is provided. The optical disk drive includes a first carrying member disposed on a base, and a second carrying member disposed on an upper cover. The first carrying member has a first optical pick-up head and a spindle motor. The second carrying member has a second optical pick-up head and a clamper rotatably disposed on the second carrying member. The clamper and the spindle motor together clamp an optical disk.
