DEVICE FOR FIXING HARD DISK
A device for fixing a hard disk is provided, which is arranged in a case and can install multiple hard disks at one time. The device for fixing a hard disk includes fixing brackets and an elastic support member. The elastic support member is arranged between two adjacent fixing brackets. The number of the fixing bracket is even, and the fixing brackets are arranged in symmetry. The hard disk is placed between the elastic support member and one single fixing bracket, which can quickly and conveniently realize the fixing and installation of the hard disk, save a lot of space, and can be arranged in array in the case. The device has high reliability and good shock absorption effects. When the space of the case is limited, the demand of high-density storage configuration can also be achieved.
SERVER DEVICE
A server device comprising a chassis, a first hard disk drive frame and a second hard disk drive frame. The first hard disk drive frame is fixed on the chassis. The first hard disk drive frame has at least one first opening exposed to the outside. The second hard disk drive frame is pivotally disposed on the chassis and movable between an in-use position and an inclined position. The second hard disk drive frame has at least one second opening. When the second hard disk drive frame is in the in-use position, the at least one second opening of the second hard disk drive frame is covered by the first hard disk drive frame. When the second hard disk drive frame is in the inclined position, the at least one second opening of the second hard disk drive frame is exposed to the outside.
TOOL-LESS ASSEMBLY HARD DISK DRIVE BRACKET AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE
The present disclosure provides a tool-less assembly hard disk drive bracket, including: a fixation rack, including a fixation bracket portion and a fixation arm connected with a first side of the fixation bracket portion; a rotation rack, including a rotation arm connected with a second side of the fixation bracket portion, and a rotation bracket portion connected with the rotation arm, the rotation bracket portion is connected with the fixation bracket portion to support a hard disk drive; and at least two connecting components, arranged on an inner side of the fixation arm and the rotation arm, respectively, the connecting components connect and fix the hard disk drive in the structure formed by the fixation rack and the rotation rack. The present disclosure is simple in installation, convenient in assembly and disassembly, and easy to maintain, thereby having high economy and practicability.
Apparatus, system, and method for enabling multiple storage-system configurations
A configurable storage-system drawer may include (1) a chassis, (2) a slide assembly coupled to a side of the chassis that is configured to enable the chassis to be temporarily pulled out of a data-center rack, and (3) a passive drive-plane board housed within the chassis and configured to enable storage-system modules that differ between two or more storage-system configurations of the storage-system drawer to be interchanged. In some examples, the passive drive-plane board may include (1) storage-drive connectors that are each configured to detachably mate with a storage drive, (2) a storage-system-module connector configured to detachably mate with a storage-system module that includes one or more components necessary for one of the two or more storage-system configurations, and (3) electrical interconnects that electrically couple the storage-drive connectors to the storage-system-module connector. Various other apparatus, systems, and methods for enabling multiple storage-system configurations are also disclosed.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RAPID REPLACEMENT OF ROBOTIC MEDIA MOVER IN AUTOMATED MEDIA LIBRARY
A mover replacement system for removing a media mover, movable between an operating position and a removable position, from within a media library includes a module housing and a service tray. The module housing forms at least a part of a library housing. The service tray is removably positionable within the module housing. The service tray is configured to releasably retain the media mover when the media mover is in the removable position so that the service tray and the media mover are movable as an integral unit out of and into the module housing. The service tray includes a tray body and at least one locking mechanism that is movable relative to the tray body between a retracted position when the at least one locking mechanism is positioned not to engage the media mover, and a fully extended position when the at least one locking mechanism is positioned to retain the media mover relative to the tray body.
Tool-less quick assembly and disassembly device for hard disk module
A tool-less quick assembly and disassembly device for a hard disk module, including a mounting rack, a hard disk accommodation cavity being provided on the mounting rack, a multilayer hard disk support structure being provided on the mounting rack inside the hard disk accommodation cavity, and a baffle being provided on the mounting rack at a position corresponding to each layer of the hard disk support structure, the baffle being provided at the end part of one end of the mounting rack, and the other end of the mounting rack being an opening end; elastic positioning mechanisms are provided on both sides of the mounting rack; elastic clamping mechanisms are provided at the bottom of the mounting rack. The invention can enable multiple hard disks to be completely assembled and disassembled without tools, has a simple structure, is easy to assemble and disassemble.
Hard drive rack ventilation structure
A hard drive rack ventilation structure includes a primary rack, a plurality of secondary racks and hard drive units. The secondary racks are stacked in layers and assembled inside the primary rack. Each secondary rack includes a top portion and side portions extended downward from two sides thereof, and the two side portions include corresponding sliding tracks thereon. The hard drive units are installed on the sliding tracks of the secondary racks. Each hard drive unit includes a hard drive main body and a handle installed at a front thereof. A gap is formed between the handle and the hard drive main body. A top front edge of each secondary rack includes a hollow portion formed corresponding to the gap of each hard drive unit. The hollow portions and the gaps of the hard drive units are fluidly and vertically connected to form an airflow ventilation channel.
Apparatus, system, and method for enabling multiple storage-system configurations
A configurable storage-system drawer may include (1) a chassis, (2) a slide assembly coupled to a side of the chassis that is configured to enable the chassis to be temporarily pulled out of a data-center rack, and (3) a passive drive-plane board housed within the chassis and configured to enable storage-system modules that differ between two or more storage-system configurations of the storage-system drawer to be interchanged. In some examples, the passive drive-plane board may include (1) storage-drive connectors that are each configured to detachably mate with a storage drive, (2) a storage-system-module connector configured to detachably mate with a storage-system module that includes one or more components necessary for one of the two or more storage-system configurations, and (3) electrical interconnects that electrically couple the storage-drive connectors to the storage-system-module connector. Various other apparatus, systems, and methods for enabling multiple storage-system configurations are also disclosed.
