  • Patent number: 8824131
    Abstract: A disk drive mount assembly for a removable disk drive includes a write protect switch located on a front of the disk drive mount assembly. The write protect switch is electrically coupled to the disk drive so that moving the switch between a write protect position and a write enable position allows one to change the write protect mode of the disk drive. A mechanism for holding the write protect switch in either the write protect position or the write enable position may also be provided on the disk drive mount assembly to prevent the switch from being accidentally moved between these two positions due to shock, vibration or accidental contact.
