The carrier has a base and two opposed sides and, and first and second wedges and which are movable to act between the main body of the disk file and the side of the carrier, to secure the disk file against movement relative to the carrier. The wedges include wedges which are movable in a vertical direction by a control linkage operated automatically when the disk file is inserted into the carrier structure.
