Abstract: A hard disk drive apparatus is provided herein. The hard disk drive apparatus includes a base and a support member. The base is formed to receive a hard disk drive. The support member is formed to connect to the base. The support member is formed of a pliable material to move into a displaced position when a force is applied.

Abstract: A disk drive module is provided herein. The disk drive module includes a set of rail members formed on two opposing sides of a frame, and a retaining wall extending between the set of rail members with a retention member extending therefrom. A paddle member is positioned adjacent to the retention member. A hook member is connected to the paddle member and rotates about an axis between an engaged position and an unengaged position based on an amount of force applied to the paddle member.

Abstract: A release latch apparatus can include a locking mechanism coupled to a first position of a rocker and a spring mechanism coupled to a second position of the rocker.

Abstract: A connector device removably connects and locks to a frame to receive a hard drive. The connector device includes a first engagement member, a second engagement member, and a movable lock and release member. The first engagement member includes a first front-face portion, a first back-face portion, and a first channel disposed between the first front-face portion and the first back-face portion. The second engagement member includes a second front-face portion, a second back-face portion, and a second channel disposed between the second front-face portion and the second back-face portion. The movable lock and release member may be placed in a frame cavity of the frame to receive the hard drive. The movable lock and release member is formed to engage a perimeter of the frame cavity to lock the connecter device in an installed position.

Abstract: A socket is to receive a memory module usable in a computing system. A latch is to retain the memory module seated in the socket. The latch is to generate a positive locking latch retention force to prevent removal of the memory module while the latch is in a latched position.

Abstract: A release latch apparatus can include a locking mechanism coupled to a first position of a rocker and a spring mechanism coupled to a second position of the rocker.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes, in one example, a dual inline memory module socket. The dual inline memory module socket includes a base to receive a memory module. The base further comprises a first detection pin and a second detection pin. A latch may be coupled to the base and is to electrically couple the first detection pin to the second detection pin in a dosed position to enable a determination that the memory module is properly seated.

Abstract: Apparatus (100) is provided for mounting media drives. Top and bottom frames (102, 104) are coupled together in a pivoting relationship (106, 108). The frames (102, 104) are configured to receive top and bottom media drives, respectively. In a closed position, the top frame (102) fits substantially over the bottom frame (104). In an open position, the top frame (102) pivots away from the bottom frame (104) by a pivot angle (136) sufficient to insert the bottom media drive into or remove the bottom media drive from the bottom tray (104).

Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for passive impedance matching are provided. An example of a method of passive impedance matching includes provided a substantially equivalent impedance between a source and a load for three single-phase power supplies via a geometry of a busbar. The busbar can be coupled to the three-phase power supplies as the source and coupled to a plurality of electronic machines as the load.

Abstract: A drive carrier comprises a base adapted to receive a drive, two opposing sides extending from the base with each side having first and second stand-off receiving apertures that each receives a stand-off from a surface on which the drive carrier is positioned. The carrier comprises a handle coupled to each side via a hinge. The handle has a stand-off receiving notch associated with each side and each stand-off receiving notch receives one of the stand-offs when the drive carrier is locked in place on the surface. Each notch applies insertion and removal forces against the received stand-off during insertion and removal of the carrier. The hinge defines a plane through the hinges and parallel to the base. The handle pivots downward toward the plane and base to lock the drive carrier to the surface. When the drive carrier is in a locked position, the handle rests above the plane.

Abstract: A latch for holding a rack mounted device into a rack is disclosed. The latch is formed from an essentially flat plate. The latch has an attachment section used to attach the latch to the rack mounted device. A serpentine section is formed adjacent to the attachment section. A beam section extends at an angle from the serpentine section. A head is attached to the end of the beam. The head has a catch that extends from the edge of the beam by a distance X, where X is in the plane of the flat plate. The serpentine section allows the head to be deflected by distance X where the deflection is in the plane of the flat plate.
