Abstract: A mobile computing management and storage device configured as a portable information handling system (IHS) storage device includes a frame and a docking station supported by the frame. The docking station includes a plurality of channels configured to receive a plurality of portable IHSs. The channels include a power coupling plug and a communication coupling plug such that the power coupling plug and the communication coupling plug are configured and positioned with respect to the channels to mate with corresponding power and communication couplings of the plurality of portable IHSs when the plurality of IHSs are engaged in the plurality of channels. The device further includes a power supply system supported by the frame and electrically coupled to the power coupling(s). The power supply system is configured to provide staged charging when a plurality of portable IHSs are stored in the docking station.

Abstract: An information handling system status alert system includes an information handling system (IHS). The IHS includes a frame, a processor supported by the frame and a memory module communicatively coupled to the processor. The IHS additionally includes an operational display device coupled with the frame such that the operational display device is viewable from a first side of the frame. Furthermore, the IHS includes a status alert display device coupled with the frame such that the status alert display device is viewable from a second side of the frame, wherein the second side of the frame is substantially opposite the first side of the frame.

Abstract: An apparatus for securing an information handling system includes a chassis cover defining a opening therein, the chassis cover including a locking member, and a panel operable to be secured in the opening or removed from the opening. In an embodiment, the removal of the panel is accomplished only when the chassis cover is in the open position. The chassis cover may be attached to a chassis in order to restrict access to some components on the chassis while allowing an option to either allow or restrict access to other components on the chassis.
